Description:
Nice solid typewriter. When I first got it, the case and machine smelled so musty I felt like I was inhaling fungus spores, and had to wear a N95 mask to work on it. Much better now.

Collecting typewriters was never something I thought I would do. But then a relatives fire damaged Royal Varsity crossed my path and I just couldn't throw it out. A local typewriter repair shop said it was too far gone to fix, and I thought to myself "well, then I can feel free to try and repair it." So, I started researching typewriters and caught the bug! I enjoy tinkering with them and getting them to work again. My husband recently asked me what I was going to do with all the typewriters and I replied I don't know. For now I am just going to enjoy learning about them, working on them and using them.
