Description:
Grabbed this little puppy up for $45 on ebay - came from Whitehall, PA. I learned to replace my first drawband on this machine! Sniff... they grow up so quickly! Neat little typer, sweet looking, great addition to our collection.

Started with one typewriter in our small cottage, and ended up with over twenty! Transformed a closet into a gothic "typewriterbrary" and it makes a great centerpiece for the house, and an easy way to access all the typewriters for writing letters, journaling, and whatnot, as well as keeping them dust-free in the betweentimes.
