Hartford 2 (1896)
The Hartford Typewriter Co., Connecticut, USA

The Hartford Typewriter is a beautifully made and intriguiing machine. The unique extended base design allows for all the key stems (the rods under the keys) to connect at the front end of the levers that transfer the motion to the type-bars at the back of the machine. This gives a consistent touch for all the [keys] on the keyboard.
