Description:
Purchased 5/1/2019
Found this one at Goodwill for dirt cheap. The motor worked at the store... but not when I gave it to my sister for her birthday. I'm sure she'll have fun cleaning it up and trying to fix it, being more electrically inclined than I am.

I've been collecting typewriters since 2010. I currently have 100+ machines in my possession. A little over half of them reside in my "personal" collection, while the rest are machines I intend to clean up for sale, or are long-term restoration projects (I'm looking at you, Olivers and Foxes!).
