Description:
Had to get this one because of the unusual color. It's almost a perfect chocolate brown.
It also comes in a special case. This case has leather trim, and all the exposed metal parts are brass. The case is designed so that if you disconnect the halves and flip the top of the case upside down, the bottom of the case sits snugly on top of the upside down top. This was intended to bring the typewriter to proper typing height of you lacked a proper table, but had a chair next to you that you could use to set your typewriter up in. I have a 1939 Christmas ad showcasing this case.
