Description:
This one was gifted to me at a local music fest. A man I'd never met before heard I like typewriters from the grapevine and gifted me this one and a 1941 Royal KMM. I understand both had been in his parents house that they were cleaning out. The generosity of strangers is a beautiful thing

So it was the winter of 2023 and I found three typewriters in my basement. (I knew they were there, but I hadn't thought about them in years). So I pulled them out and fell in love with all things manual typewriter. In short order my aunt gifted me 2 more, a cousin set 3 my way, various friends were happy to unload typewriters from their attics & garages to my Home for Wayward Typewriters. ... So now, spring of 2023 I have a collection of 13 typewriters, in various stages of functionality, I have intent to fix them all, starting any day now. . . meanwhile, I am learning and documenting and dreaming
