Underwood 315 Portable Manual Typewriter

This is the Underwood 315 portable manual typewriter. I have a fascination for typewriters and often explore websites to read about typewriters or chat with others on the subject. The Underwood 315 was my third typewriter. I now have a preference for larger heavier typewriters and finally decided to let go of this beauty. One of my favourite features of this is the comfort level of typing on the keys -- it is quite effortless. It is incredibly lightweight with a compact case making it easy to carry. This is great for writing or creative projects. This can also be a great gift for a loved one! Features include: • Type: Portable / Ultraportable • Keyboard Layout: QWERTY • Year: 1970's • Color: blue and white, black keys • Two-Tone Ribbon Selector • Original vinyl case Aesthetics: This Underwood 315 is a sleak, ultra portable beauty. It is made to last. Keys are clean. The plastic components are very strong and solid. The case fits compactly. Mechanics: This typewriter has beautiful action. Veey snappy with a smooth carriage return. Solid base. Carriage return is smooth and fast; spring is strong. Platen knobs are well-adjusted. The spring-loaded paper support loads and retracts. Size: 33.5 x 36 x 10 cm (13 x 13.5 x 4 inches) (measurements are approximate) Weight: about 5.5 kg This Underwood typewriter is impressive and great to inspire a creative spark or memorable conversations!
