AMC Portable Typewriter with Case, Made in France, 1950s
AMC Portable Typewriter with Case, Made in France, 1950s
Here is a great and rare vintage typewriter by AMC that was manufactured in France in the 1950s. This typewriter has a brand new black and red ink ribbon that comes preinstalled. It has a lovely grey color with chrome accents and matching grey keys. Please note that some of the keys are slightly misshapen and worn. Some of the keys stick with some frequency. The shift lock key is missing, but shift lock still works properly. The typewriter is in good cosmetic condition with some signs of use such as dirt build up on the case, dust, and minor scuffing. This typewriter includes a convenient zippered carrying case. Please note that the case is not original to this typewriter, but fits it snugly and securely. The case originally went to an Olivetti portable.
All typewriters sold by Memory Hole Vintage are fully functional and are sold with a brand new ink ribbon preinstalled. This means that all major functions work as expected and all keys type normally, unless otherwise noted (please see notes above). 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!
