I inherited a collection of around 400 old typewriters and calculators from my father, who collected them for 50 years.
I also have a YouTube channel featuring these typewriters.
The pictures are made by my wife who is a photographer. Her name is Milena.
This gallery is managed by her,
So if you like the pictures don't thank me but her.


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