Condition Cosmetics Overall Very Good condition – considering it is near 70 years of age. Original wrinkle paint – a couple of wear spots. Keys – green – with minimal / no wear. Wear to the space bar. Original metal cover. Function All keys strike / work without sticking – not serviced and will benefit from care to work smoothly. The cotton ribbon (which does not use standard universal ribbons) is a bit dry. . A rescue from an estate in far Northern Michigan... 072024
