Found

I have deemed this the find of the summer.

Lovely, little $5 beauty.

With original case and manual. I don't know what is is about vintage manual typewriters...maybe it's the design, the funky colors, the stories they could tell...or told. In any case, I am a huge fan.
You?

  2. Where do you keep all these cameras and typewriters? Mine would have to be spread across the dining room table. Good for my diet, bad for family togetherness.

  7. Just found you from OA, but I glance at Free.Scr. now and then too. I love the typewriters too. I had a diff. brand back in the day (taught typing), but the Royals were the beautiful brand :)

  8. Wow, what a cutie-beauty! And you really took some nice pictures of your find.
    I have an old Brother typewriter which I got when I was 10. Ever since, I love old typewriters, but I don't collect them (yet). My husband would probably freak out :)
