Description:
I have no references about another Wellington Nª 10. I've looked at several collector webpages, pictures in the www, etc.
Of course, I am pretty sure I will find here some useful advice.
The typewriter was in a part of Argentina we call "Mesopotamia" (that means "Between rivers"), On of the states surrounded by the rivers Parana and Uruguay.
Probably this typewriter comes from Brasil, and was not intended to find a south american destination (there are Pan American Wellingtons, and this particular one is just a "Wellington").
Who knows. After this pictures the typewriter was dismantled in order to get rid of its superficial rust (I am using alcohol vinegar, there is no chance to get Evapo Rust in my country).
The typewriter is complete and operational. I promise a typeface sample as soon as possible.
