Description:
Bought this from Shopgoodwill.com in April 2018. In great shape except for the space bar, which wouldn't work. My typewriter repairman, Mitchell, at Abbotts Business Machines in San Diego, said a bar was bent and he bent it back. Love this flattop. Looks like what Sam Shepard, the playwright and actor, used and also what Larry McMurtry used. Has more ease of use than my curvy 3000.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Hermes 3000 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Hermes Serial Number page and the Hermes 3000 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
