This model has a metal casing with enamel paintwork which is in a good general condition but does have some minor marks and signs of wear in places. A few of the coloured key top covers also show some signs of wear and the underneath of the ribbon cover also has some residue left from what would have originally been a lining that has worn away. The typewriter measures 30 cm by 30 cm by 8 cm high, making it a very compact portable typewriter.
