The Hermes 3000 is a lightweight, segment-shifted portable typewriter manufactured by Paillard-Bolex [de].[1][2] "Bulbous" and "angular" in shape,[3] it came with a fitted, hard-shell removable cover. The machines were built in Yverdon, Switzerland, by Paillard S.A.[4]
Hermes 3000 from 1970 (back), in front of it is a Hermes Baby.
The Hermes 3000 was introduced in 1958[5] as a successor to the Hermes 2000.[2] The original Model 1 was produced until 1966; with subsequent design modifications to the external casing and a variety of subtle changes in colour finishes, the Hermes 3000 was manufactured into the 1980s.[5] Although it was a portable machine, the Hermes 3000 had a few deluxe features, such as a "beyond the margins" key, which could also be depressed to free any jammed keys and return them to their resting position.[6] The typewriters predominantly came in a light green (occasionally described as a mint[7] or "sea-foam green") colour.[8]
