Imperial, 1915, Mod. B, UK

The machine was built by Hidalgo Moya, an American-Spanish engineer who lived in England.
The most striking aspect of the Imperial is the curved keyboard with hammers placed vertically in front of the roller.
Initially the machine, complete with bicolor and backspace, costed 10 pounds. In Italy it was sold with 29 keys, 30 in France and 32 in Germany.

The Imperial Mod. B, appeared in 1915, just before WWI.
