Description:
Donated to my collection. The case is missing the handle, but the latch clearly shows "U.T.Co". It appears this typewriter was used for pharmacy work, with specific characters for that purpose (follow the link below for photos at my blog). Needs several repairs. I'm guessing when it was retired, the owner let the kids bang on it.
Oct 2017 UPDATE - Sold this one at Herman's gathering
