Description:
This little typewriter is simply marked "Sears," but anyone familiar with Brothers will recognize it as such. The name Brother does not appear on the typewriter, nor does the place of manufacture (presumably Nagoya, Japan). Except on the carriage, all body panels are plastic and a plastic cover fits over the typewriter. Like most Brothers, it works very well.
