1920 Roberts Ninety

This is a very rare Roberts Ninety. The Roberts name is derived from the L.H. Roberts Co. which acquired the assets of the Blickensderfer Manufacturing Co. in 1919. This model was previously branded as a Blick Ninety and eventually rebranded as a Roberts Ninety around 1920. The selling point of this typewriter was its interchangeable typebar segment. Formerly of the Richard Mohlman collection.
