Description:
August 24, 2018
This was advertised in an estate sale that opened yesterday. Today was 25% off day, tomorrow is 50% off. From the photo, I could blow it up enough to read the $50 price tag, so I originally was going to pass on it. With the sale's location on the way to an errand today, I stopped in, and saw it was still there, looking to be rescued. As I paid my $37.50, the seller said that someone had been in yesterday and was going to come back tomorrow during the 50% off sale.
It came with a case, a manual (in shabby condition, but still) and some utensils. Really nice shape.

Attorney and Writer, I'm rediscovering writing with a typewriter from back in my high school and college days. I've dedicated a page on my website to Typewritten Pages - one-page writings typed then scanned into a .jpg to post on my site - www.DoHaeng.com.
