Description:
Nicknamed "King Ghidorah"
IBM Selectric 72 Composer, made in the Netherlands. Early model.
100% functional.
Serial stamped on the machine starts with 815, however the sticker on the bottom case says 615 like my other Composer. Unsure of the reason for this discrepancy.
Video showing the basic use of the machine is in the links section.
