I was impressed that the plastic on this Seville, no cracks and not brittle. Then I put the outer lid back on (it cracked and a chip broke off). But then the outer case lid the most exposed part of the typewriter. The typewriter itself for over 40 looks & feels great and it’s orange color looks like it would glow at night. (It looks like a Citizen XL (Columbia) and was made by same manufacturer.
Gee, the “Æ’” and “ij” characters are used in the Netherlands; Æ’ is, or was at the time, used for the guilder (or florin), their dollar, and “ij” is such a common occurrence that got its own character.
Thank you very much, I learned something new today.
Nice bright color. Matches one of the fire engines I used to operate.
If I remember correctly, the “ij” key is usually found on Dutch keyboards.
Chintzy machine! But unusual.
