Description:
This is a nice portable typewriter. The shift mechanism is a carriage shift, and it takes more strength in my pinkies than I would like (that carriage is heavy for a small machine!). If I'm interpreting the information in the typewriter database correctly this is a model JP-1 based on the lack of a paper rest and white keys.

Collecting typewriters was never something I thought I would do. But then a relatives fire damaged Royal Varsity crossed my path and I just couldn't throw it out. A local typewriter repair shop said it was too far gone to fix, and I thought to myself "well, then I can feel free to try and repair it." So, I started researching typewriters and caught the bug! I enjoy tinkering with them and getting them to work again. My husband recently asked me what I was going to do with all the typewriters and I replied I don't know. For now I am just going to enjoy learning about them, working on them and using them.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Brother Charger 11 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Brother Serial Number page and the Brother Charger 11 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
