Handsome Squared-Off Frame

One of the important features of this typewriter is that it includes an innovative, easily-resettable “Magic Margin" lever on the back left side of the carriage, a major innovation for its day.

This precision machine also includes a “0 to 9” touch control setting, three-position ribbon-color selector, ribbon reverse lever, back space key, margin release, ribbon reverse lever and both shift and shift-lock keys. Interestingly, the “shift” keys on this machine are labeled “Shift Freedom” keys — the opposite of the “Shift Lock” key.

All the parts are in good, functional condition on this machine, although the bell-trip lever needs some adjusting. The case is in excellent condition.
