If you could find the craftmanship today it would be at least $200, probably a lot more.<br /><br />My black Tippa and case have accompanied me here to Freeport Maine for a much-needed vacation. u might not think that a typewriter and its case would enjoy a vacation or the seacoast of Maine, but I assure you my Tippa and its leather case do.<br /><br />John LambertJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09813996622310585545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248447883714712696.post-8853522007627679802013-08-17T03:25:17.865+10:002013-08-17T03:25:17.865+10:00A totally delightful find!

Looks about the same size as a Remington 2 with the typebars in the resting position; how do they compare? <br /><br />Now that's a nice project that would be fun to have replicated. I happen to know a couple of leather shops; maybe I'll see if they can make something like that...
