Description:
Basing the year off what others in the gallery are saying, since the table is a bit confusing. One of the most recent additions to my collection. I really like it, though it could be a bit gentler on my fingertips, which for some reason do occasionally slip between the keys. Certainly a visually appealing little thing. Like a nicely boxed cheesecake. The += key doesn't like to work smoothly but as I don't need that one frequently, I'm able to ignore it.

Longtime poet with seven typewriters in my collection currently (not counting ones I'm in the process of selling). I'm a super speedy typist, so my favorite machines are the ones that require the lightest touch to operate. Over the years I have learned the hard way that how light of a touch a typewriter requires is definitely subjective; many machines others say are "easy", I find cumbersome. But I love all my machines and collecting them is sadly addictive (sadly since they are difficult to acquire on the cheap locally, and they certainly take up more space than my knickknack collection. Ha).
