1962 Western Auto (Brother) Wizard Truetype Serial # R274602 1962 Western Auto (Brother) Wizard Truetype typewriter, Serial # R274602 Mike Green's 1962 Western Auto (Brother) Wizard Truetype typewriter. 2022-07-08 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Mike Green: 1962 Western Auto (Brother) Wizard Truetype Serial # R274602 A Brother made in Japan. Marketing by Western Auto stores under the name Wizard Truetype. Western Auto was a chain of variety stores, found in smaller towns in the USA. Brother also made the similar Vanguard for another chain. It's a sweet little machine. I think it looks great with the gray and black color scheme and a centered gold WA for Western Auto. My favorite look of the early Brother variants. Has a folding wire paper support.
