Late Brother JP-7 variant, came in at least 3 different (and equally weird) shell styles depending on if it was sold by Monkey Ward, Sears, K-Mart or a swath of various non-US retailers (or under the Brother label itself). Great design, ticks a lot of nice boxes in terms of "improvements". The tooling for this machine eventually went to China, who used it to poop out "Generation 3000", "Olivetti MS25 Premier", "Roytype by Royal" and "Royal Scrittore" models through the 2000's. Presumably the tooling still exists in some Chinese warehouse.
