Description:
I got this from my grandmother's neighbor along with the Olympia SM7 and I have to say that I was NOT optimistic....
It was very dusty and I was afraid to even turn it on! However, after blowing out the dust with a can of air, I found that it works quite well! Even the nylon cassette ribbon still work!
I'm not 100% sure yet, but I like it better than the Coronet Automatic 12! It is not as 'harsh' as that machine.
Given to my great aunt the week of 8/19/18.

I started collecting typewriters several years ago and it started with a late 1960s Smith-Corona Sterling portable that I got as a gift.
