I personally refurbished the typewriter. It writes smoothly and has no sticking keys. Body of typewriter is in good condition with normal signs of use. With that being said, the typewriter does have a few quirks.

Nice working Brother Accord 12 portable manual typewriter with original case & manual/paperwork. This machine has a deep scratch in the badge on the front of the machine, as pictured. This does not affect the usability of the machine. This Brother Accord 12 types clean and crisp. The keys are light and springy.

Nice little antique Remington Portable (model2) typewriter with case. Tested working. See type example. The typewriter looks and types nice. It does have a bit of float with the "F" typebar as pictured. Usually it sets back with the rest, but often, it sets back to float an inch or so above the resting bar. Everything else seems to function well. The case is missing its handle. See pics.

It is labeled the Aristocrat. From research on this typewriter I found out it is from 1970 with serial number AT5 8 83210. It is blue and beige. It functions properly but will likely need a fresh ribbon and could use a good internal cleaning.
