Description:
Inventor: George Canfield Blickensderfer
The Blickensderfer typewriters were initially manufactured in a rented factory on Garden Street in Stamford, Connecticut. By 1896, due to strong foreign demand in particular for his machines, Blickensderfer opened a new and modern factory on Atlantic Street in Stamford. ~Wikipedia "Blickensderfer Typewriter" accessed 02 Dec 2017
Factory set up in Stamford, CT in 1895.
According to Paul Lippman, the no. 9 sold for $60. http://site.xavier.edu/polt/typewriters/blick9.html

Hi all from southern US! Been collecting typewriters since 2016, mostly interested in pre-1930s models.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Blickensderfer 9 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Blickensderfer Serial Number page and the Blickensderfer 9 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
