Description:
One of the last Dreyfuss as the style got changed in late 1950. Good condition, with some paint yellowing on top.
For some reason, one of the previous owners decided it would be a good idea to apply a coat of brown paint on the case.
Now cleaned.
2024-03-03: New round of cleaning.
2024-03-08: Added typeface sample.
2024-03-11: New pictures.

I started collecting my first pre-WW2 standard typewriters in 2017. Since then I have added a few machines to my collection, which now ranges from the 1880s to the 1980s. As of 2024, I have more big standard (desktop) typewriters than portables, a few standard electrics, and some unusual machines like Varitypers, uncommon IBM machines, and more. I am not a pro restorer, but I have restored a few of my machines beyond simple cleaning.
