Description:
Making this project an early Christmas gift for one of my best friends since Kindergarten. Had to go hunting for some spare parts to get her back and serviceable, but now she’s typing good as new thanks to some work from my man Martin at San Gabriel, CA’s International Office Machines. Haven’t had the pleasure of using one of these noiseless models, and they’re awesome to use after getting acclimated - super light type-touch with solid, heavy body and carriage.
Writers: Ralph Ellison, Langston Hughes, Sinclair Lewis
