Description:
Roughly-treated yet still willing to work, this 1961 arrived missing it's back cover, with no case. The space bar has been cracked at some point and the tray is filthy. And yet, despite the scrapes and bruises - the bell still rings, the carriage rolls smoothly, the tiny little font appears proudly, if a little smudged. Some cleanup and gentle alignment and she will be functional again. So fine you will not look when YOU are 59, Yoda says. Yes, the Force is strong with this one.
