Description:
Got this one at a thrift store. It was well preserved in that solid fiberglass case. It took some cleaning but the typewriter and the case now look nearly new. It's a beautiful 1960's design and has that cool glide-forward ribbon cover and two keys with changeable type.
*- I think it's 1965 only judging from some of the other Classic 12 dates and serial numbers in other members' galleries.
