1961 Blue Bird 18b Serial # 1240734 1961 Blue Bird 18b typewriter, Serial # 1240734 Karina S's 1961 Blue Bird 18b typewriter. 2024-03-20 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Karina S: 1961 Blue Bird 18b Serial # 1240734 My Blue Bird that I purchased from Charlie Foxtrot Typewriters in February 2024. Althought to me, it has an odd keyboard with not only there not being a number one key but there also isn't a zero key due to all of the fraction keys. But once I type the date out, I usually don't use ones and zeros very often. :) It is a fantastic typewriter and my first machine with elite typeface.

I began collecting in June 2023. I am interested in learning all about typewriters; the companies, the different models and the variety of typefaces.
