Description:
I like this machine a lot, fixed it up for my mother but at some point in time someone clipped of 3 of the keys so now it dosent type well at all. The 6 F and R keys were clipped off.
The panel telling the model number is gone, I bought it like that.
The serial number is stupidly on the right side of the frame facing the body of the machine, super hard to see.

Hi, I started collecting typewriters in my early teens . One day I stumbled across an antique store on my way home, I saw a typewriter outside the shop and I urged my Mother to pull over so I could check it out. I don't know where this intrigue can from but after that machine I became fascinated with them. I figured I should mention that, most people seem to get into this hobby for nostalgia, I just like mechanical things.
I started a Youtube channel called The Jersey Type
