O no, its the 80s.
I believe that's the serial number anyways, it's right underneath the date code, although it could be some other manufacturing number, I'm not entirely sure. This thing is massive and cheap, it's as creaky as any other mass-produced plastic electronic from the '90s, even though it's from the '80s. Sadly this example dose not work, the carriage just keeps on going to the right on startup and doesn't stop till you power it off.
Ok, so I just looked up the CPU and apparently that was manufactured sometime in 1983 so I'm assuming the typewriter was probably made in 1983 aswell

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
