FRENCH CORONA No. 3 TYPEWRITER W/AZERTY Portable Standard Folding Antique Vtg
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:879535 | Modified Item: No |
Corona's folding No.3 model was the first truly successful portable typewriter produced with a frontstrike typebar arrangement. It opened up a whole new market for typewriter manufactures.
French Version with an AZERTY layout, serial numbered 327, 741.
The example listed here is cosmetically very good. Nice decals. The paint is still glossy but a little scraped from being taken in and out of its cas...e (common). Lovely wear to the keyboard. The exposed metal components need to be polished a little. Mostly, this Corona is just a bit dirty. Functionally, because of their age, the feed roller no longer grip sheets of paper too well (there are YouTube videos on how to replace these). I don't believe this is a major issue so this typewriter should work well when taken care of. An original case is included which is in very good, functional condition. Very good condition overall.
I have other typewriters, too. Please look.
