Description:
Called Tetanus, few rust patches and last owner sprayed it with WD-40 and the typewriter was bent in the middle, required full teardown clean bending and scrubbing for this machine to work like new, lovely machine for my collection and the damage doesn't affect the action it just adds character, imported to Australia from France

17 years old with a passion for the past, started repairing these back in September 2021 and scrounging for any typewriters i can here in Perth Western Australia. Love these old machines and plan on fixing them for future generations to use.
