Description:
I purchased this in February 2024 from Bremerton Office Machine Company. I love typing on this. The touch control (on the left side under the ribbon cover) on it works very well and easy to adjust it to your liking. I had a bit of a tricky time identifying the typeface. At first it seemed like it was wide elite Victoria as the uppercase Qs matched up but the CPI didn't The former is 10 CPI but mine is about 11 CPI so then I settled on Imperial also known as "Bodini." I wasn't able to find a NOMDA book sample to go by and just relied on other collectors. Made in Italy.

I began collecting in June 2023. I am interested in learning all about typewriters; the companies, the different models and the variety of typefaces.
