Description:
Piclite type
US keyboard
This was my first decent manual typewriter, I was once quite fond of it. I gave it to my cousin years ago, promptly found another one at another thrift store, and then later sold it.

I started collecting typewriters in 2006, but what started it all was using my mother's Brother Student-Riter XL1 in 2004. The next year I received my grandma's Smith-Corona Silent, which was enough to hold me over for a little while but eventually led to an obsession with manual portable typewriters.
