Description:
I bought this typewriter as a gift for a good friend (that is why I add it here as "not in my collection") through Facebook Marketplace. Impressive blue color on its plastic body and case, basic QWERTY keyboard, no Tab, no touch control and a simple ribbon mechanism also made from plastic. This machine is fun to use and has everything that one expects from a late 70's or early 80's Silver Reed, very lightweight, reliable mechanism and a very nice typeface, yet in a cheapest package. It can perfectly serve as a first typewriter for any new user. Hope my friend enjoys it.

Writer and blogger from Athens, Greece. I own a small collection of typewriters, most of my machines are functional and I try to repair any with problems that keeps it from typing. For me, it is important for a typewriter not just to sit on a shelve for display, but to be able to type when I want to. On the links below you will find my blogs and social media profiles. Feel free to follow me and get in touch if you want. I am always happy to communicate :)
