Just picked up, dirty after 50 years in a basement. The ribbon is moldy, but nearly no rust! This beasty machine works as it is!

Collector with typewriter virus living in Austria. Fourty years ago typewriters were only standard office equipment for me. I was really glad to get my first but simple word processors in the early Eighties with delete, copy/paste and whatever wonderful functions. This fascination is over. Now I have returned to real mechanics.
