Here we have a 1970’s, working Silver Reed SR 200 vintage, manual portable typewriter finished in bright red with a black carry case.
After some research on the serial number, it looks like the typewriter was produced in the 1970’s in Japan.
Even though this Silver Reed SR 200 typewriter was made in the 1970’s, it works very well! The comfortable keys are responsive, the backspace, carriage return lever, the bell, the shift keys, carriage lock, margin setters, ribbon selector (for the colour change), the carriage release lever, the paper guide and the paper release lever all work as they should.
This typewriter has been fully cleaned, serviced, and a new ribbon fitted and is ready for many more years of typing pleasure
Made in Japan.
