The Privileg 300TR was designed by Brother for everyday use. It features a robust mechanism and practical functions such as a tab key and a fast-forward key. The design incorporates space-age styling lines, further emphasized by the light, creamy beige-greige tones and the contrasting black and red keys. It is equipped with the special CUBE typeface.

Restoration:
All typewriters restored by farbenundklang were thoroughly tested, serviced, and fine-tuned as a first step. Missing or defective parts were replaced with suitable donor parts. The mechanism, case, and carrying case were cleaned, refurbished, and restored. Modern materials and technologies, such as nanotechnology, SiO2, and UV technology, were used in the restoration process. Only silicone oil-, wax-, and carcinogen-free products were used.
Aesthetic condition:
After thorough cleaning, care, and SiO2 treatment, the robust ABS plastic casing has regained its like-new appearance. The metal and chrome-plated surfaces have reclaimed their original shine. The casing has a light taupe tone (a mix of RAL 1015 and RAL 7044) and a smooth, highly durable surface. Very fine signs of use are still visible on the casing—they tell the story of this typewriter.
The case, lock, and handle are intact, clean, and have been refreshed with a silicone-free plastic care product.
Technical condition:
Thanks to thorough cleaning, maintenance, and fine-tuning, all mechanisms function perfectly. The platen and all rubber parts have also undergone special cleaning and conditioning, which can extend the typewriter's lifespan by several more decades. The type is crisp, and the keys are aligned correctly. The typeface is CUBE (10 cpi) – angular, futuristic, and extravagant.
Included:
Privileg 300 TR typewriter with original carrying case
