Description:
The Newport grew on me very quickly and consider its design one that is easy to appreciate. In terms of performance, it's an average machine at best keeping in mind that there were far worse typewriters being produced during the '70s.
Retailed in Canada through Simpson's-Sears stores (model number 405.52950).
