SOME GENERAL INFO GATHERED FROM THE INTERNET:

One index pointer, two shift buttons, one space key and a type wheel were all that German designer Paul Muchajer needed to produce his small index machine. The machine appeared in 1924 and was a considerable success. The Gundka is a machine with many names, but just one face. The machine appeared as the G&K, the Frolio, scripta, Perlita, Write-Easy, M-W and Gefro. There were quite a few different models with minor differences.
