I had originally planned to toss it back to Good Will, but now it looks kind of cute with its part yellow color - but I can't find anything about it. I know its a Riccar, serial number JA3 724667, says Made in Japan on it. I can't see any model number and I have no idea if it's worth keeping or if I should throw it back.
