This typewriter, while it does mostly function, is not something I could, in good conscience, sell as a usable machine. The frame around the colour selector is broken, the carriage is wobbly and doesn’t reliably advance with each keystroke, the spacebar doesn’t actually appear to be working, and there are not ribbon spools in it.

For someone who wants to learn more about the inner workings of manual typewriters without being concerned about breaking something of value, this could be a great educational tool. Take it apart and, if you can’t get it back together again, you’re out $20 and maybe you learned something.

Machine and shell-style case included and in decent cosmetic except for broken frame around colour selector. Price is firm but, as a hobbyist, I am open to trades for other typewriters. Delivery possible for a small fee within Kelowna.
