Description:
Found in an antique shop, this model is missing a paper table and three C linkages.
After some cleaning and repairs, I moved the missing linkages from the fraction keys to letters.
It types fairly and has a beautiful 11 pitch congress elite typeface.

I have recently grown interested in typewrites as I found a couple at my grandfather's office, accompanied by my writing hobby; you can say I unlocked a new world.
I am keen on collecting and trying different typewriters.
