## Description

Chums Manual Typewriter Traditional Retro Style Black : desertcart.co.uk: Stationery & Office Supplies

Review: Typing in style but needs improvement! - I love typewriting, since I was a kid. I was looking for a machine to continue doing my hobby and I checked in charity shops but I could find the one that fit what I was looking for. I bought this one and the looks are amazing, the touch is quality but I have my concerns about the keyboard as many times multiples keys are hit at the same time and my fingers are not too big! They should improve that area also the ink is not amazing and sometimes it’s requires multiple tries to get the correct amount of ink into one letter which is annoying!
