Description:
One of the most feature rich Silver Reed ultra-portables: Paper rest, touch control, fixed tabulator (every 10 characters), repeat space.
Elite typeface (12 CPI). Got it in perfect condition, and types well, snappy but rather loud, with a very hard platen.

Software engineer by day, and typewriter newbie by night.
I got my first typewriter when I was a child, one of the kid's plastic ones, but was not satisfied.
I moved on the first real one, a portable Silver-Reed Silverette S, which I still own today, and use once in a while.
