For Sale Free - Brother AX-100 electric typewriter plus many ribbons

[Dominic Koe]

Brother AX-100 electric typewriter. Precise age unknown. Used for many years in the production of books and research papers until the owner's publishers absolutely refused to take any more type written manuscripts, and he was forced to go digital. In good working condition in about 2010 but not used since.
Free to collect from Edinburgh or ship at your own cost.
Also around 50 ribbons and correction tape cassettes. See attached pictures.
I'd like to avoid this going in the skip if it can bring a little joy to anyone else.
Regards
Dominic

@Dominic Koe any luck? I see these sell on eBay for approximately $50-$100 USD, so shipping might be more than actual value. Hopefully someone local is interested!

Hello Ezra, thanks for even having a look at it. I'm afraid you are the only person who has commented. I couldn't give it space any longer and it had to go to recycling a few weeks back. Understandable I guess. It was practical and efficient in its day but didn't have the fascinating intricacy of earlier mechanical models.
Regards
Dom

@Dominic Koe makes sense - hopefully it gets reincarnated as something equally useful! Kudos to you for trying to give it more life here in the first place.
