Description:
The Hammond Multiplex Closed Ideal typewriter. Dutch shuttle.
My second Multiplex typewriter. Meant to buy it as a parts machine, but I am considering fixing it as almost everything is present. Only missing one key and the shuttle activator. (If we don't count the impression strip and the ribbon). Condition is okay for it's age. Base plate has a crack. All four bottom plate screws are present. Typewriters works sort of, it will move in the first section of the carriage, but as it goes it looses it's willingness to move.
*SOLD*
