Description:
This was the first machine I ever bought, and it was a rather exotic entry into the world of Australian collecting. I've never seen another on sale here but it's not like my frame of reference is that comprehensive :)
This is still one of my favourites to use. I've heard various opinions on the quality of these machines - I find mine very crisp and precise. It's ideally suited to counterbalance my frenetic typing style!
I reckon the badge is one of the coolest things ever to adorn a typewriter; it's just so overdone and ritzy.
