Looks similar to a Panasonic RK-T series typewriter. Not sure of the exact model but they are listed like RK-T33 or RK-T55 and so on. You might have to search a bit to find that specific typewriter model.
My Dad used Smith Corona typewriters most of his life. He thought he was the coolest guy when he bought a Smith Corona that had a single line dot matrix LCD screen above the keyboard area where you could make corrections before it actually typed it out on the daisy wheel. I think that was in the late 80's.
