Description:
Found at a local thrift store.
Stiff at first, but now working well.
Elite 12 typeface.
The factory original ribbon spools are slightly smaller than standard diameter spools.
Added some stamp pad ink to the ribbon with a small dropper to test.
This is not a machine for heavy duty office work, something about the light plastic feel seems flimsy.

Retired to the quiet of rural Nebraska to contemplate nature.
Typing down thoughts, prefer that to handwriting.
Not really a collector, just like to tinker on mechanical things.
