Typewriters (10) : KOFA 300

Quite a few examples of this typewriter are on sale on eBay at any one time, often listed as being "vintage" or even "1970s/1980s". You could of course wonder why such an "old" typewriter has the Euro symbol on it's keyboard! That must mean the typewriter was built no earlier than about the year 2000. New typewriters are still made in China and this typewriter came from there, it is listed on this website (though the site is pretty old).

As it isn't a very old machine it naturally works pretty well and has little sign of wear and tear, though is a little plasticky.
