Showcase (6) : Brother Deluxe 1350

This is the most important typewriter in the collection, because it was the first one! Without this one there might not be a collection. A lovely typewriter it is too from the late 1960s or early 1970s with fake wood effect styling. It certainly is very brown!

Unlike a lot of later typewriters which had a rigid case which snapped over the top of the machine, the Deluxe 1350 has a nice fully enclosing case with zip. The typewriter works pretty well though it seldom gets used much these days, maybe it's time to change that.
