191X Imperial Model B Serial # 10736 191X Imperial Model B typewriter, Serial # 10736 Richard Wood's 191X Imperial Model B typewriter. 2016-12-27 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Richard Wood: 191X Imperial Model B Serial # 10736 Amazingly, despite the terrible condition, this machine still works and I can imagine when it was new it was actually very nice to use.

The round keyboard is very unusual and the type basket actually obscures your view, you have to sit properly when using this machine.

I love the font, it's slightly larger than Pica and a little different I think.

This is just used for a decorative piece, it simply sits on my dining room table with this vintage invoice wound in it.

Typewriter collector, previous sewing machine collector.

Originally from the Garden of England, Kent. I have lived in Sheffield for over fifteen years.

As a young child, I always enjoyed taking things apart and seeing how they functioned.

I have been collecting a range of vintage typewriters for over two years.

Previously, I was interested in restoring sewing machines, then I acquired my mothers Olivetti Dora and looked under the hood and typed, I was hooked on typewriters and how they worked.

I learn something every day from passionate bloggers and typewriter enthusiasts.

Fan of Joe Van Cleave's typewriter video series.
