Description:
Barn fresh, with original case. Needs cleaning, but all mechanical functions OK on first test.
Waxy white haze on keys can be removed without damage to plastic. Cleaned up with toothbrush. Added picture of clean keys.
Back panel has some paint loss from flaking, but not from water damage, it seems to be a factory quality issue.
The case is original but the condition is not as good as the typewriter. Musty. Added photo of lower-case alignment on bottom.

Retired to the quiet of rural Nebraska to contemplate nature.
Typing down thoughts, prefer that to handwriting.
Not really a collector, just like to tinker on mechanical things.
