Description:
Likely a No. 6. Model numbers were displayed on the paper table, which is removable (and easily lost). Mine included a paper table, but only a decal for New York Import & Export, a company that thrived in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
This typewriter could be a No. 7, though. The serial number, 805, indicates an early manufacture date.
