1966 Webster Portable Serial # B-6143575 1966 Webster Portable typewriter, Serial # B-6143575 Nicholas West's 1966 Webster Portable typewriter. 2023-01-26 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Nicholas West: 1966 Webster Portable Serial # B-6143575 I watched a couple of videos by Joe Van Cleave about his Webster (made by Brother) typewriter. The very next day I wandered into a flea market and this beautiful old Webster was sitting right in front of me. I bought it for $40....except for having to replace some perished rubber grommets holding the ribbon cover, the machine was perfect. It's the first ultra-portable I have ever owned. A fabulous typewriter.
