Description:
This may be the finest specimen of an Underwood 5 I've ever come across. This was one of Bob Aubert's machines--just missing a few carriage pieces that needed to be sourced, and the set screws on the platen seemed to be stripped, so I still need to address that. Nevertheless, simply a gorgeous machine. (Delran, NJ: July 2023).
