Description:
A gamble. I’m a gambler, I guess. It’s been out of a case for a long time, I think. It needs TLC and a new ribbon. The Add a Type 1/! and =/+ are missing the key caps. It’s at least full of good parts! It’ll go on Craigslist FREE STUFF for a handy dandy fun project for someone. It operates as intended but with the hesitance of a long neglected machine that had been used hard then tossed aside. Tagged and bagged here. An optimistic industrious person picked this one up after I placed a FREE ITEM post on FB marketplace.

I have many pen pals and correspond via handwritten and typed letters. I have a (painful) sitting disability and type while standing- UPDATE! I can also type on an ultraportable I set up on my bed. Typing and collecting machines with different typefaces keeps me busy and happily distracted from the difficulties in life-fountain pens, too, and I can write legibly, in cursive, while laying down. Join me on Type Pals and register for the monthly postcard exchanges. The “Cat Mews” is a quarterly publication of the philatelic topical group Cats On Stamps Study Unit (COSSU), for which I am a column contributor. My cats are Wiffle Wizard and Urushi (Rushi) Blizzard, aka the Blizzard Sisters.
