Nothing says "I Love You" on Valentine's Day Like a Typewriter


I get a lot of these Smith Corona Silent, Sterling & Standard's.

I see many of these Corona's in all colors

I sold this 1955 Olympia SM-3 to a young writer.

This Royal 10 movie prop is getting a second life.

    Yes, great to see that you're busy at work again.

    I won't be so foolish, though, as to give my wife a typewriter on V-Day! :)

    All my lady "friends" know what I would want on V-Day, but will they give me a type writer? Fat chance. For some reason, I'm always the one who "pays"! But, enough about "me," your yellow paper, pics, and typer stories are, as always, great!

    I nominate Jack to write your next typecast blog essay!
    He should tell us all about his impressions of the typewriter business.

    Good to hear that business is going well :)

    I'd love to a have a typewriter on V-day but I do not think I'll get lucky...

    I second speculator, it would be great to see the Boston typewriter boom from an acolyte's perspective :-) If I gave a typewriter (even a red plastic Olivetti) as a valentine's gift - I would be wearing it before noon!

    Thanks you everyone for your comments. I am glad to say that Jack has agreed to write about his impressions of the typewriter business for an upcoming blog. He mentioned two weeks but we'll see.
