Description:
The "laptop" first incarnation (flat as many modern portable computers).
Strange for me at first glance, you can not make it operate off its transportation case (you can not even can split the typewriter from it). A 180 degrees turn put the typewriter in function (and you never go out of power, at least while you are alive).
Ribbon very dry, and I do not intend to damage the platen hammering the keys in order to mahttp://typewriterdatabase.com/191x-bennett-pocket-model.7652.typewriterke the famous fox jump over the boring dog.
This is the "Roxy" incarnation of the "Rooy".
