Description:
I got this machine for a good price locally, but it doesn't work. I will try to clean it a little and then have it serviced.
Somebody was moving out of an office and letting this go. It came with a slightly damaged cover.

I started collecting my first pre-WW2 standard typewriters in 2017. Since then I have added a few machines to my collection, which now ranges from the 1880s to the 1980s. As of 2024, I have more big standard (desktop) typewriters than portables, a few standard electrics, and some unusual machines like Varitypers, uncommon IBM machines, and more. I am not a pro restorer, but I have restored a few of my machines beyond simple cleaning.
