I found one being sold as "works well" but I was unable to test it. The case was clean but after getting it home I found that it was filthy inside, and after extensive cleaning I am unable to get it to work.

Accidental collector.
I originally bought one typewriter for personal use, but within weeks was buying more as the collecting bug crept up on me. I am mainly interested in European makes from the 50s and 60s.
