    HISTORY:
    Adler typewriters are among the most famous in the business. Known for their antique looks and good functioning properties, Adler typewriters have formed and shaped the typewriting industry for several generations. The Adler Company was started in 1896 and began with a focus in making bicycles, auto mobiles, and motorcycles. Adler began a design that would eventually yield the thrust-action typewriter. They introduced the Klein Adler and Klein Adler 2 versions of the typewriter. These machines were much lighter and more portable than the original Model 7. The Adler 8 was the company's next product and was a full-sized office machine. This typewriter was a prototype for the much more common Adler 11, which featured two double shifts and contained six characters on each of the machine's type bars. This allowed the user to write in two entirely distinct typefaces. In 1909, the company began working on the Adler 15. Although research and development had begun, the machine was not built until 1923, fourteen years after the original development began. The Adler 15 begins to replicate many of the more modern versions of the typewriter, and even our modern computer keyboards. The model 15 contained four rows of keys and a single shift. The machine was really only one step away from introducing the regular font strike typewriters that the company would produce for the remainder of its lifetime. The final model that Adler produced was extremely successful, and was produced until the company was forced out of business in 1995.
