Description:
K-Mart launched the Wedgefield brand of typewriters in 1971. See the Kmart 100 gallery as well. This is a budget model with 42 keys. It lacks a paper table, paper rest and tension adjuster. It does have a bi chrome setting, whereas some of the 42 key Brothers do not.
This one turned out nice with an easy service. It didn't have a case, so this is a later Charger 11 shell.

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to any one area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Wedgefield (Brother) 100 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Wedgefield (Brother) Serial Number page and the Wedgefield (Brother) 100 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
