If you keep looking you will find a affordable one. It's a shame they go for so much online.

If my knee was better I might ride a day with her. Thanks!<br /><br />I dream lo-tech- Exactly! Most every day is a blast because I never know what's going to come through the door.

So it's ...Always happy to hear your good news. <br />So it's like a box of chocolates with your typewriters, you'll never know what you're gonna get. <br /><br />Stunning Remington 5.Ton S. https://www.blogger.com/profile/10691201724230891974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1296810989330430559.post-10818364170838087132012-03-26T04:04:49.930-07:002012-03-26T04:04:49.930-07:00Great to hear business is still booming.

I was watching it, and I did not bid since I had a different machine in my sights, a Smith-Corona Skyriter which I now have in my collection.<br /><br />Your typewriters are always so very nice looking.<br /><br />Those daffodils bring back fond memories of my home town and childhood. If I still lived there I'd be within a days ride of your shop. How things change as we get older. I'm a good 3 days away now.<br /><br />I hope Jack stays with your shop and you can teach him the trade.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1296810989330430559.post-4896650363141796702012-03-25T18:08:21.380-07:002012-03-25T18:08:21.380-07:00That's funny Winston.

If I was still living in the city, I would be dropping off my resume tomorrow. I've done cigar shops, bookstores, and picture-framers. Jumping into another thriving "obsolete" business would be right up my alley!Winstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17975027530244662003noreply@blogger.com
