Description:
PLEASE PLEASE - I need help dating it. I only guessed the year. 1927 ? 1933 ?
I bought this machine in Mount Carmel (IL) for a project about Jack Kerouac I'm working on: www.iamjack.art
(Don't worry, the typewriter has not been harmed in the making of this project!)
It seams to be the exact model Jack Kerouac used to write "On The Road"... would you agree? https://timpanogos.wordpress.com/2007/06/06/typewriter-of-the-moment-jack-kerouac/
It works like a charm apart for some little glitches now and then. Beautiful machine!
