Description:
Underwood Standard Portable Typewriter. Now that's a proper title for such a small little marvel of engineering. The perfect machine in terms of portability, and without the need to fold like its competitors Corona and Fox. A backspace key ensures your pinky isn't left floating. Taking it apart reveals a very well designed machine, truly. A bit heavy on the shifting, though that varies per machine. Shortest type-bar arms you'll probably find. The Machine You Will Eventually Carry.
