Description:
Found at an estate sale; obviously used in the past (Wite-Out and pink eraser shavings in the body) but in great condition otherwise. Some of the slugs were gunked up, but a breakdown and soak took care of that. These machines were so well built, all this one needs is a bit of attention and consistent use.

An old soul in an even older body. Lifelong writer who started on a typewriter, forgot that they existed when computers came on the scene, and then rediscovered their utility (and blessed simplicity!) as a Weapon of Mass Creation. Currently own 8 machines (6 manual / 2 electric), each with its own personality, and am committed to using them all on a regular basis.
