Description:
Purchased 9/12/2018
Remarkably clean, there's not even any yellowing to the keys. The case handle broke at some point and was replaced by a new one, which shows this typewriter was well-taken care of.
SOLD on 2/4/2019

I've been collecting typewriters since 2010. I currently have 100+ machines in my possession. A little over half of them reside in my "personal" collection, while the rest are machines I intend to clean up for sale, or are long-term restoration projects (I'm looking at you, Olivers and Foxes!).
