Description:
This machine was from a private sale and it was completely non-functioning. For $40, I took it in and had a friend put the insides back together again. It is a nice machine and has a nice tiny typeface.

Novice typewriter enthusiast. My first experience with a typewriter was with my grandma and her letting me type away on hers for hours without a single complaint (she was an angel). My love for vintage fountain pens, my favourite grandma and an appreciation for practical antiques/art has brought me here. One of the most rewarding thing so far about this hobby has been the very interesting and wonderfully helpful I've been introduced to.
