Description:
An ad for this typewriter appeared on a classifieds site just one hour after I arrived in Sydney to spend the day. A Perfekt coincidence, one might say! It was only five minutes away from me, so it was a no-brainer to run over and pick it up.
Bar a ribbon vibrator that occasionally sticks, it's an absolutely lovely typewriter. It came over from the Netherlands when its original owner (who sold it to me) immigrated to Australia and it has been in constant use since then. It's snappy and brisk - a real pleasure to own and use.
Sold May 2019.
