minus-squarequediuspayu@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-21 天前I have this one, a friend found it in the trash. The ribbon it’s quite easy to re-ink so if you manage to get hold of some old cartridges they can last a long time. The typewriter is pretty but is almost like a toy.

However, it’s cool to have typewriters just for decoration. Not my thing, but cool if it’s someone’s.
