While this is nice and functions as you would expect There are 2 issues The ribbon is pretty faint and could use replacing And the 2nd and bigger issue is the chassis is missing the bushings that hold the lid/cover in place It sits there and looks great but there is supposed to be a rubber sleeve in the body of the typewriter that recieves the shaft on the lid Without that the lid won’t attach properly
eBay
The typewriter is in good physical condition with typical light soiling to the outer body. The typewriter works pretty well, with the overall action of the keys being a bit stiff (a little harder to strike than most typewriter keys).

Fresh estate find, I have not cleaned or taken apart. Works great, T key sticks and it needs to be cleaned inside which should solve the sticking problem. Ribbon needs to be replaced it looks used up. I see no rust, stored indoors, dusty. I am not a typewriter expert. Case is missing one of the front black rivets, no key, scuffs and wear on case but it is functional and sturdy. All rubber feet on typewriter and case. Old piece of tape partially covering back decal. Your purchase supports Boys and Girls Clubs of America. 🙂

This portable typewriter is in good cosmetic condition. It is an Morse 900 made in Japan by Nippo. It is offered for display or to restore with some service attention. Most all the keys strike okay, some of the outside keys would need adjusting to return properly. The red/ black ribbon feature sticks and the ribbon is dried out. This 55 year old machine does not appear to have had too much use. The zipper case does work showing expected wear. Nice display piece and was well made. Shipping package is 14x14x6 inches and weighs 12 pounds. Thanks for looking

We have cleaned the machine, oiled the strikers and installed a new ink ribbon. Overall a very nice machine!
