Needed new rubber washers - they had disintegrated and the carriage rubbed on the casing. Typewriter had taken a hard hit on the left that had crumpled the left ribbon tower. After straightening and new rubber, typewriter typing great.

I'm a novice collector with a very small collection of mostly nonfunctional typewriters. I enjoy tinkering and repairs, so I am slowly but surely putting these typewriters back into service.
