Description:
A wonderfully red machine, kindly given to me by Robert Messenger. I've noticed that this one is a bit different from earlier examples. Earlier features include a color selector lever in the back, near the carriage; this newer example selects the color using a wheel to the right of the keyboard. Other differences are mostly tiny details, such as the shape of the spacebar or the design of little screws.
