Description:
This is a model 6126.
I acquired this in August 2018 at the same estate sale I got my Correcting Selectric III. Like that one, it didn't work and was serviced in March 2020 by Ole Kehlet in Sacramento.
UPDATE 2022-09-16: Sold as I have another Correcting Selectric II just like it.

I started collecting my first pre-WW2 standard typewriters in 2017. Since then I have added a few machines to my collection, which now ranges from the 1880s to the 1980s. As of 2024, I have more big standard (desktop) typewriters than portables, a few standard electrics, and some unusual machines like Varitypers, uncommon IBM machines, and more. I am not a pro restorer, but I have restored a few of my machines beyond simple cleaning.
