It looks in very rough shape.

Will have a tough time selling it....but someone may buy it for parts.  Lots of them on ebay and other sites for sale in much better shape.
Sorry.

Keys are used for jewelry.  This typewriter has seen its' better days.  Some foreign countries desire working typewriters but I do not know if yours would work without a lot of work.  I have bought very nice working typewriters of this vintage for $1-$3 at rummage sales.
