Description:
A striped Selectric III with both carrier cords broken. The shell was missing. And it works (we have to push the carrier)!!! The ribbon is dry so I had to type with stencil position... amazing machine. I'll try to look for another model and this one will stay as a parts machine. AZERTY Portuguese layout keyboard with Courier 96 Pica typeface element.
