Description:
I found this machine locally. It needs some restoration.
Came with case top, but no brush.
Had a missing part in the back, but I got the spare part from a collector.
Restoration started in 2019-2020 but not completed as of 2024!

I started collecting my first pre-WW2 standard typewriters in 2017. Since then I have added a few machines to my collection, which now ranges from the 1890s to the 1980s. As of 2020, I have more big standard (desktop) typewriters than portables, and a few standard electrics.
