Description:
This is a very dramatic orange color! It is, of course, another Corsair and as so often happens it’s missing the spring on the carriage return lever, but it does have the ribbon cover. Actually, the carriage return lever mount is mangled, so I’ll have to fix that before we get more pictures and a type sample.
A Yard Sale find, asked. Quite dirty. Missing the case top---darn! It’s cleaning up pretty well.

While I find all of mankind's inventions interesting, I am most enchanted by the human-scale arts and devices, the ones that can be created (and repaired) in a home workshop or studio; the ones that can be understood by looking at them; the ones that do something useful or stir admiration. Typewriters work for me.
