Description:
RaRo 88/Bruxelles type
Dutch keyboard
There's a lot to be said about this typewriter. Yes, it isn't the most dependable, most robust typewriter made. But it has a lot going for it, more than you might think.

I started collecting typewriters in 2006, but what started it all was using my mother's Brother Student-Riter XL1 in 2004. The next year I received my grandma's Smith-Corona Silent, which was enough to hold me over for a little while but eventually led to an obsession with manual portable typewriters.
