In very good vintage condition. All keys work smoothly and there is no body damage. Will need new ribbon and could use a cleaning and servicing if it will be in continuous use. The case exterior has light staining, the typewriter itself also has some marks of wear and stains, but these are minimal and most can be seen in the pictures provided.
