Description:

Shown in 'as found' condition complete with broken parts taped to the ribbon cover. Types very nicely, something I've come to expect from most Zeta-made models. The manual simply describes it as a "portable typewriter with automatic margin stops", and it looks to predate the 1511 model. And because of the 'Zeta' branding and its palindrome serial number, I'm guessing it was manufactured during the early '50s, certainly prior to 1958.
