Description:
Thrift store find. Good case.
Working well as found.
Some light cleaning but no mechanical problems.
Elite 66 typeface
Date code sticker on bottom is hard to read but likely is HT3161
Later note: Right carriage release lever missing, those plastic parts often broke in normal use. Hand made a replacement from a wood dowel.
This machine works very well. Keyboard feel and size fit perfectly under my hands.

Retired to the quiet of rural Nebraska to contemplate nature.
Typing down thoughts, prefer that to handwriting.
Not really a collector, just like to tinker on mechanical things.
