1951 Hermes 2000 Serial # 2019456 1951 Hermes 2000 typewriter, Serial # 2019456 Mark Petersen's 1951 Hermes 2000 typewriter. 2017-04-06 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Mark Petersen: 1951 Hermes 2000 Serial # 2019456 Excellent machine. It does pile sometimes (the opposite of skipping most 2000s do) but with careful typing that affect is minimalized. This machine is easily in my top 5 favorites, even having owned over 200. I never thought I'd enjoy a Hermes quite this much.
Came with no case, took one from another machine. This one and I are going places.

I painted the tops of some rusty Corona spools International Harvester Red. I love how they look on this typewriter. Subtle but a little extra flair on a machine which is fairly drab.

I am an aspiring novelist and avid typewriter enthusiast from the New River Valley in Virginia. I am a proud Virginia Tech graduate with an education in creative writing. I use typewriters for all my writing and am working on a novel. I also do street poetry. I often can be found writing on one of my machines in downtown Blacksburg and enjoying a drink.
