Description:
Lovely light blue machine. No ribbon color selector switch. Supposedly very similar to the Royal Mercury. Guessing it is Silver Seiko and not Nakajima but unsure. Not to be confused with the JetStar....
Join the JET Age with this fully functional, baby blue typewriter. She's ready for takeoff. Let your thoughts soar amongst the clouds like the Big Jets of this era

A lover of the written word, I was bitten by the typewriter bug at the beginning of 2019 when I embarked on a Joyful Odyssey to track down a vintage Olympia SM 7/8/9, (I didn't know the model number at the time) that my mother had owned and which I had used to type my college applications in the late 1980's. I have acquired quite a number since, and have enjoyed learning about the history, mechanics, and true variety of these machines.
