Description:
I got this machine from an old lady who was clearing up her mother's apartment, the carriage was stuck, and the machine was nonfunctional, so I took it for free. My first free typewriter.
Came with a case and a snapped zipper, I personally restored and cleaned the machine, and it is now as good as new. It is snappy and stands out than any other typewriter.

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.
