Description:
A typical 50s Underwood. It works great and has a very bold typeface. The wide carriage looks nice, and I love the sweeping parallel lines on the sides. Got this machine from someone local who used to repair typewriters back in the 1970s. I'm impressed that underneath all of those body panels, it's basically the same machine from the turn of the century.

College age collector from New Jersey. Struggling to keep my collection under 30 machines. Started with this hobby back in 2014 when I was a freshman in high school, and it has led me all across the spectrum of machine repair from telephones to tape machines. I always end up coming back to typewriters though, can't keep me from returning to my roots.
