Description:
This typewriter is minimalist: there is no margin release; no right margin, only a bell trip; no line lock; no tension adjustment; no bicolor ribbon mechanism; carriage release lever only on the right. Vertical adjustment is achieved by bending metal tabs instead of the usual, more sophisticated method of turning screws.
