This Invicta portable typewriter features an Arabic keyboard. As such, the machine types from right to left. It was manufactured in Italy, but I was unable to determine a date of manufacture. It types well, though some keys get stuck occasionally. It includes a gently used black ink ribbon that has plenty of life left in it. One of the glass keys has a crack going across the glass cover - please see photographs for a close up of this condition. The typewriter comes with a convenient carrying case, those please note that the handle on the carrying case is broken.
Serial #: 207812
All typewriters sold by Memory Hole Vintage are fully functional and are sold with a brand new ink ribbon previously installed, unless otherwise noted. This means that all major functions work as expected and all keys type normally. As with most vintage typewriters, a key may stick or mistype occasionally, but that is to be expected of older machines. These typewriters have been cosmetically cleaned, but will include varying degrees of internal dust, scuffing, and other cosmetic imperfections. Please examine the photographs for a clear understanding of the machine you are buying. Happy typing!
