I collect and restore European and American typewriters from the 1890s through the 1960s. I focus on portables but I have recently begun to add American Olivers to my collection.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Barr Typewriter on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Barr Serial Number page and the Barr Typewriter By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
