Description:
Sighted at MTE, in excellent shape, just some paint flaking on the front.
Of note: Brother makes a cloth ribbon cartridge for their AX series electronic typewriters, and the ribbon in this cartridge is an exact fit for the Frolio/Gundka spools. Works great, takes about 3 yards of the cartridge ribbon. Heck, even the carbon ribbon might work too if the ribbon advances fast enough.

I am a scoundrel without a cause, and my swank outshines the sun.
I am a casual Typewriter Hunter residing in the sweltering deserts of Arizona with a wife, three cats and about 50 typewriters. My main hunting ground is thrift stores, and I rarely pay more than $10 for a machine. My collection consists mainly of portables with cases, and they stay in the cases unless I am actively using it (usually more than one at a time). I do, however keep a handful of interesting Selectrics, including a Composer and a couple of large Nakajima Electronics to use as daisywheel printers for my vintage laptop collection.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Frolio 7 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Frolio Serial Number page and the Frolio 7 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
