This manual typewriter definitely carries the clean lines look of the 1960's. It is a very light and attractive typewriter with its own attractive carrying case in excellent condition.
Everything is working on this machine and it appears to have been used very little as it is in pristine condition. The typewriter has a very light touch to it and it operates smoothly.

This typewriter has a good ribbon on it and ribbons for most of these old manual typewriters can be found in my store by searching under the category of TYPEWRITER SUPPLIES. The type style font on this typewriter is a bit unusual and very attractive. See the photos for reference.
The original key for locking the case is still with the machine. There is a business card inside the lid referencing a typewriter service shop in Valley Stream, New York so this machine may have come from that area originally.
This typewriter has a 44 character keyboard but it does not have the #1 key. Instead it has a 3/4 key which is unusual. You use the lower case 'l' key for the #1 which was a common procedure in those days.
