When my grandma passed away and we were settling her estate we found a wildly large and or ate typewriter buried under papers in her office.

It was enameled black with gold ornamentation, not gaudy but it looked like it would fit in next to one of those old pedal sewing machines.

The desk fell apart when four of us picked it up off it, it was apparantly the only thing holding the desk to the earth and when the weight came off the desk gave up the ghost.

Pretty sure my cousins scrapped it :(
