Hanging Out On Grub Street


This Quiet de Luxe is near perfect!


I wish I had a truckload of these beauties.
This Speed King sold to a teen writer
Every year when the daffodils bloom, I have to post it.
 
This 1954 Lettera 22 I'm keeping all to myself.

Hall of Fame Makeover...literally.


If this Corona could only talk.

This machine was very poorly stored for decades.


It still looks like a well worn machine but now it works great.

Check out the added Pharmaceutical keys on right side.


When the first Corona was retired, he purchsed this second one which I'm typing this second story one.
Well, that's it for this week. Hope you enjoyed the stories. Everyone have a great week.

You never know where your machine has been till you check under the hood.
       

    



This 1946 Royal Quiet de Luxe found a new home.

This beautiful 1934 Underwood portable also just found a new home.
