Oh my gosh! That typewriter looks to be in absolutely beautiful condition! It is very clean and the paintwork is wonderfully preserved! Did you try it out? Does it need a ribbon, or is it ready to go?
I'm sure Robecca, with her mechanical aptitude, can take care of any necessary adjustments and have it back in to working order for you in no time.
Does this machine have the Czech characters on the number row? (I cannot tell in the pictures.)

Neat! Looks like it's in great shape. I really like the colour scheme/doll you picked to show it off.

Robecca is close to the perfect doll to showcase the typewriter.

That is a glorious typewriter - both with and without the cute Rebecca accessory

Thank you very much, guys!
davidd - I think it would need a new ribbon and yes, the special characters are on the number row.

Ooh I love how you managed to get the blue to stand out in the filtered photo. I can never get that working when I try it.

I love the brilliance of the gold in the full-color version! Your photo here reminds me of the first time I saw detailed color photos of Tutankhamun's treasures!

Lucky day!!!!!
"Tor, can I have my hand back?"
"Sorry! It was running around like a mouse, so I chased after it without thinking..."
"That's OK, I'm glad you managed to catch it."
"Your limbs have been kinda rowdy last few days."
"I'm afraid it won't stop until Halloween is over."
"Zut alors!"
"Oh well, if I catch any other fugitive body parts, I'll bring them to you."
"Thanks!"

What a lively, colorful scene! Frankie's disarticulated limbs creeping and crawling and scurrying and scampering around on their own is a fun and creepy-cool concept!

Ooh, that looks so cool. Toralei giving into her cat instincts is so oddly adorable.

Such a cute photo. Torelei chasing after Frankie’s hand makes perfect sense, given that she’s a cat and they chase wriggly things.

Oh, she looks so lovely. Staring off into the distance as if she's caught sight of something that she can't quite look away from
