Description:
Found at a thrift store in Falls Church, Virginia for $16 and it was another $15 to get a good cartridge for it. The Coronamatic cartridge was debuted in 1973 so this machine would have been made after that date. It is an ok machine to type on but not amazing. The motor runs so smooth though, and that is why I have chosen this machine over several others.
