Description:
Has the short return lever; metal case (typewriter in base, top comes off) Seems rugged, alright.
Bought on eBay and it arrived unpadded, just slipped into a large Priority box, which is a nice fit, incidentally.

While I find all of mankind's inventions interesting, I am most enchanted by the human-scale arts and devices, the ones that can be created (and repaired) in a home workshop or studio; the ones that can be understood by looking at them; the ones that do something useful or stir admiration. Typewriters work for me.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Tower Chieftain on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Tower Serial Number page and the Tower Chieftain By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
