Description:
I got this New Century Calligraph #5--formerly of the Clark Family Collection--from Tony Casillo in October of 2022. What a great machine. It only took a little bit of cleaning to get it up and running once again; plus a new 1 3/8" ribbon from DeBarth's to replace the old ribbon which had rusted to the ribbon spools... something I had not had to deal with before.
