There will be a typecast tomorrow. For now, I'm wondering about the year, given the model 5 and SN 810544 /5.
Thanks to my yard-saling friend for finding this and texting me.
Hm, flattopped? It looks a bit different from mine. Maybe it's a later model 5? I can't find the serial number in the database under model 5. But I did find it under model 6. Explains the model, but not the /5 and the decal... Mystery!!
That's a striking machine. What do the circular stickers/labels on the top of the case say?
ReplyDeleteleft side - "Euro-pean" and right side - $20-" but they sold it for $15
Deletenice score! does it type well? (:
ReplyDeleteBeautiful machine, one of my all time favorite writers,

ReplyDeleteModel 5 came in both the round and flat shape. Round-up coming.
DeleteNever knew. Thanks!
DeleteGreat find! It's always helpful when friends keep their eyes open for old typewriters!
