Description:
The first typewriter in my collection. I love the wear and tear. The wear around the platen knobs indicating the years of contact between skin and the surface of the body. The replaced N key, All indicators of years of service and care. This typewriter holds some history.

Went down the rabbit hole and came out a collector. I have an appreciation for craftsmanship and quality. The sound of a typewriter takes me back to my childhood. I had to take a Typing class in high school!
