A distinctive feature of this typewriter is its hinged carriage, which rocks forward to make contact with the type-wheel beneath the nickel-plated disk. This unique mechanism sets it apart as the only typewriter designed in this way.
An inked ribbon ‘curtain’ (now missing) once dropped from the edge of the disk, brushing against the type-wheel as it turned.
The last two advertisements feature the Champion typewriter, a later version of the Peoples, distinguished by the addition of ribbon spools.
