Strike a Light! Australia's Funniest eBay Typewriter Listing


The listing says, simply, "Adler Typewriter in it's [sic] case  working; only minor marks otherwise good". The seller is in Port Fairy, Victoria. The poor old Tippa is off with the pixies, trying to find a way through to its printing point.

And such a simple fix, too! At least the seller says it is working (although one wonders how he knows)- it would be funnier if he had written that it wasn't and he couldn't for the life of him figure out why...

Must resist making joke about everything being upside-down in Australia...

If only it had some kind of print or type on it, that would give a hint to its proper orientation!

Plus, maybe I'm missing something obvious, but what's with the box of matches?

I spotted this... And had a bit of a chuckle myself!
