Antique c1895 RARE Blickensderfer No. 5 TYPEWRITER w/Original Box WORKS
Price: US $192.50
This is a Blickensderfer No. 5 Typewriter. Serial Number 98480. As you can see from the pics, it does not appeartohaveseen much use.

It seems mechanically sound with only one part that is not connected. The part is with the typewriter and seems to be in good shape also. As you can see from the pics, the space bar has the left side broken off. I also have the end of this part that is broken off.

The round wooden cylinder in the orginal box contains one additional type wheel. It is the same size as the one you see in the pictures, but the type looks somewhat different. All keys seem to have little wear and all function. The actual typing wheel does not turn to the respective key as you press it however. The mechanism that turns the actual type wheel must not be functioning.

I don\'t claim to know anything about these typewriters. I have not researched them and don\'t even know if it can be made to work. Based on the condition and the functioning of the keys and rolling mechanism, I would believe it is in very good shape overall for its age.

I am happy to answer any questions you may have, so please let me know.
