Description:
Found at Goodwill in Blacksburg, Virginia for I think $3 or at least very close to that. This is my favorite wedge typewriter. It is also a word processor and can store almost 30,000 characters (but when it's been unplugged for even a little while it loses its memory). A lot of fun to play with and I have collected a few unique daisywheels for it.
Gifted to a friend.
