This is an absolutely stunning typewriter! It is in excellent condition, and the sellers included a Tolkien quote and a cute typewriter pin! It comes with an instruction manual, which was helpful as this is my first typewriter.
The shipping to the USA took approximately 1.5 months longer than predicted. I don't blame the sellers for this, as they posted the typewriter in the post VERY quickly. The wait was worth it. Fortunately this typewriter just for personal use - if purchased as a gift, buy VERY early.
The only bummer was the installed typewriter ribbon being almost completely dried out - I purchased a new typewriter ribbon today but am sad that I can't use my typewriter until it arrives.
The sellers are AMAZING. They have been very helpful and kind. This is the only shop I'd consider for purchasing a typewriter.
Very good machine. Very good restoration.
This typewriter is a gem! I love using it and learning more about it all the time. Using it is like dancing with it- a physical, sensory interaction. Just dreamy!
