Description:
I got this grey 1951 QDL in elite typeface from a familiar seller in West Philadelphia, PA in March, 2023, from the same person and at the same time as I picked up a nearly identical grey 1951 QDL in pica typeface. This one had a jammed ribbon selector and tons of off-gassing from the keys, which all had to be taken care of, in addition to the usual repairs and issues.
