Description:
The missing link. This daisy wheel JP 16 features an old fashioned carriage setup. It wasn't used much and had a brand-new ribbon cartridge. The ribbon drive wheel rubber was snapped in two, so maybe that was why they parked it. The ribbon and correction lift needed some cleaning. The tab is inop, and that's probably gummed up as well, but I am not taking the mechanism out of the shell today.

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to any one area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Brother Executron on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Brother Serial Number page and the Brother Executron By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
