1912 Monarch 3 Serial # 63294 1912 Monarch 3 typewriter, Serial # 63294 Brian Decker's 1912 Monarch 3 typewriter. 2026-01-03 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Brian Decker: 1912 Monarch 3 Serial # 63294 I got this Monarch 3 parts machine a long time ago, I think at the July 2002 Typewriter Jamboree in Southboro MA (hosted by Chuck Dilts and Rich Cincotta). I plan to use a few parts from it for my Monarch 3 #99868S, most notably the star wheel & pinion assembly. I have already removed it as of this posting (1/3/26), and it's in rough shape like the rest of the typewriter, but at least it turns freely. The pinion on my #99868S machine is bent. I also plan to take some springs and maybe some linkage components from the parts machine, but not much else.

Status: Typewriter Hunter
Points: 1161

My interest in typewriters started in 1997, when I was in graduate school at the University of Georgia. I purchased and read Darryl Rehr's book, joined ETC, and started reaching out to known collectors. I had several email interchanges with Richard Polt dating from that period. I also bought some of my first machines from Bob Aubert, and visited him at his home twice. After marriage and relocation to New England, I continued visiting antique shops and eBay, until other priorities put my typewriter hobby on hiatus around 2008. I still have my collection of around 57 machines, and now I have a renewed interest in getting some of them in good working and cosmetic order.


RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Monarch 3 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Monarch Serial Number page and the Monarch 3 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
