Description:
Stopped by an estate sale today (09-16-2017), and found this sitting lonely on a table, with a $25 price sticker. It was the second day of the sale, so everything was 25% off. The ribbon is ratty, but otherwise she seems to be in nice shape. The case shows wear.
On December 13, 2019, I gifted this typewriter to my grandson, Dean Jacobs, for his 9th birthday.

Attorney and Writer, I'm rediscovering writing with a typewriter from back in my high school and college days. I've dedicated a page on my website to Typewritten Pages - one-page writings typed then scanned into a .jpg to post on my site - www.DoHaeng.com.
