Description:
[Sold on 3.25.20] No unneeded frippery here: no bell, only one carriage knob (on the right) and no two-color ribbons allowed. Also has tiny ribbon spools (but they will accept a standard ribbon if you wind it onto the spools by hand.) Bare-bones and yet a handsome, practical machine. This one had a hard life and bears some scars- but it works. It still works. Put in a fresh ribbon and it is ready to type. Impressive for an 80-year-old working-class object.
