Description:
Purchased from Ebay and cleaned/reconditioned by Paul Lundy of Bremerton Office Machines.
One of my favorite typers, and one of the best ever made in my opinion, maybe the best American made. Effortless typing. Tons of features, and it actually is kinda portable. Classy, stylish look. I love it.

Mid-30s in Auburn, Washington USA. My main hobby is getting and sending mail: I do Postcrossing and penpal letters, so along with that I enjoy going to thrift stores, doing paper & collage art, and collecting & using stationery items of all kinds. I do a lot of reading and journal writing, weird documentary & movie watching, and sewing when I have the time.
I use the machines almost daily, for personal correspondence and creative writing attempts. I look for typewriters with unique typefaces, and I have a modest variety of brands.
