Description:
In the process of cleaning this machine, I removed the old felt on the underside of the old body panels and discovered it had an engraving from the factory that dates this machine as having been produced on December 16th, 1930, even though the serial number dates it to 1933.

I’ve been collecting typewriters since 2019. I started with a Remington 5 Streamliner that I found in a local junk shop and from there, my love for these machines grew and grew. I now have far too many typewriters in my collection, assuming that you think there is such a thing.
