Description:
This is one of the best typewriters, I have seen.
It's fun and pleasant to use.
Keyboard is tough but with enjoyable rebound.
Carriage moving is very light - it's a case, when the carriage can be returned with a shove.
It's an early modofication of "Elite-3" with a paperstand made as a separate detail.

Hi everyone!

A psychologist, a collector of all sorts of vintage junk, typewriters, alarm clocks, and so on.
I love typewriters, and typewriters love me))
I wouldn't call myself a HUNTER - I just love typewriters, use them and collect some of them.
