This is a authentic "Tom Thumb" type writter. This type writter is over 50 years old. All keys seem to work but the "shift" key is missing. It still has its original ink ribbon in it. It is made out of a heavy metal, not plastic like everything is made out of today. This was made during a time when "MADE IN AMERICA" meant something, when things were made to last. This is a must for any collector. All you have to do is replace the ribbon AND YOUR ON YOUR WAY! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. The price is negotiable, make me a reasonable offer.
