Description:
This is a "green" QDL, with the "AG" prefix. The green is not very green, to be fair. It really depends on the lighting.
This machine is in very good condition. The paint was very dirty when I got it, but it cleaned really well. There is one persistent black spot on the front right but if I insist, I fear that it will completely flatten the nice crinkle paint in that spot, and that would not be better.

I started collecting my first pre-WW2 standard typewriters in 2017. Since then I have added a few machines to my collection, which now ranges from the 1880s to the 1980s. As of 2024, I have more big standard (desktop) typewriters than portables, a few standard electrics, and some unusual machines like Varitypers, uncommon IBM machines, and more. I am not a pro restorer, but I have restored a few of my machines beyond simple cleaning.
