Description:
Got this one in a terrible state: letter O broken, casing bent and dented, missing almost all screws, paper bail still missing, no ribbon.
Alas, for this rare machine, spare parts must be even rarer.
But types nice and clear.

1960. Forestry engineer and watchmaker by education. Working as IT guy (database and web) in the national office of an international NGO in Amsterdam.
Have always liked machines, mechanics and apparatus. Always fixing things.
Got infected with the typewriter virus in 2012 and discovered there is a lot on offer here in the Netherlands for reasonable prices. Storage space is an issue :-)
