Description:
Lightweight and very functional. This one I bought for just 1Yen! The owner clearly did not like the Emperor System in Japan and announced it on this typewriter, complete with date and, at the back, his name!

I'm an archaeologist who writes heritage books and collects Japanese ceramics as well as quite a number of typewriters that I've acquired through purchase or as gifts over the last 10 years in the Philippines as well as in the US and Japan.
I'm currently a visiting professor at a university in Japan and it is heaven here to see so many typewriters being auctioned online!
