Description:
Hammond 1 typewriter, one of my grails. Needs spools, paper table and a bell clapper.
Has some damage in the carriage, unfortunately had no success getting some partial refund and I didn't want to risk damaging it further.
Ebay was no help; the said they could help me but different representatives told me different things; I ended up writing a review which got removed. Will avoid buying from sellers I don't know for the foreseeable future.
Machine miraculously works; caariage advances and the split shuttle moves accordingly. Am currently looking for the parts mentioned to make it perfect.

22 year old Dutch collector. Interested in any era of typewriters except for most post 1980's machines.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Hammond 1 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Hammond Serial Number page and the Hammond 1 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
