I am a collector of 19th century typewriters and have built a collection that shows the remarkable ingenuity and beauty of the world's first typewriters. I have always been interested in the beginnings of a machine when there is an eruption of approaches to making it. Early typewriters are an exceptional example of this incubation period.
My collection can be seen at antiquetypewriters.com
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Oliver 2 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Oliver Serial Number page and the Oliver 2 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
