Very few blemishes. It does have a slight wear on the left top ribbon cover where the carriage handle has been moved over the top. The original platen, paper feed, feet, back space, margin release, tab are in good condition and the ribbon feed, new ribbon and bell work well.

Original Corona Typewriter Model 3 folding portable, manufactured circa 1916–1921 with patent dates through February 1917. Includes the original folding hard case with handle. Typewriter is functional: keys strike, carriage advances, spacing, backspace, and shift/FIG keys all operate. Some keys stick intermittently due to age and will benefit from cleaning. No restoration or disassembly has been attempted. Ribbon is present but likely dry. All components appear complete. Normal cosmetic wear consistent with age, including wear to the case exterior. A great original example for collectors, writers, display, or light use after servicing. Sold as pictured.

This was the preferred typewriter of the Luke’s of Hemingway and many more famous writers. It appears to be fully functional although it needs new ink. I also tested it briefly before the ink dried so I cannot say with 100% certainty that it is fully functional.

I believe that the working typewriter had limited use as the original paper is still in the machine. It's been in storage for over 20 years so it's not the most beautiful looking but it works which is the most important.

The typewriter shows notable paint wear and finish loss around the edges. Includes its original wood-base case with hinged cover (as pictured), showing age wear and surface loss. • Displays as shown with visible paint loss and surface wear.

Rare BLUE Royal Portable antique typewriter with crackle "alligator" blue paint. There aren't many of these blue ones around. It is a great looking conversation piece. Sold as is. I don't do anything that might compromise their value.

Serial number 2Y 265884 which would indicate a 1955 model. Typewriter is in good condition with scratches and markings consistent with normal use. Would benefit from a lubrication and ribbon change.

This antique typewriter is in working condition. It really could use a new ribbon and to be oiled up a little bit here and there, but it does work. Please look at pictures.

SEATTLE TO BE EXACT. EVERYTHING THAT HAS PASSED THROUGH THE HANDS OF MANKIND, OR THE SOILS OF THIS PLANET, HAS ITS' OWN UNIQUE STORY, AND SOUL. IT MAY BE AN OLD 45 THAT WAS CRACKLING ON A TURNTABLE DURING THE BEATNIK GENERATION OF THE 1950'S.

I’m happy to assist! This item has not been tested, and by purchasing, you acknowledge and accept that it may be either in working or non-working condition. NOT FULLY TESTED. SEEMS TO FUNCTION OKAY.

Up for sale is a really nice Vintage Smith-Corona Clipper Portable Manual Typewriter. It is from 1959, I think, based on the serial number (5C-480115). The color is Taupe, with white keys. No noted issues mechanically! All the keys work! It does have a little surface rust on the inside catch where it connects clips onto the case. Any questions at all, please do not hesitate to ask! Thanks for looking!

Some wear on the bottom, see pictures I didn’t test it with new ribbon, but it moves smoothly
