Brother Deluxe 800T – Portable Typewriter – Ready to Use – With Her Case Serial Number: F6333437 1976. Nagoya, Japan.

Functionally I have found nothing to be wrong with her. To the best of my knowledge she has been well cared-for over the years and I would guess she has not been heavily used.

Please see pictures as they form part of the description. Her black-and-red ribbon has been replaced recently so I have left it in. New ribbons are readily available online in New Zealand and are cheap. She has a few scuffs and could use a dusting/cleaning. I am selling as is.
