I like collecting past technologies such as typewriters especially the ones with special/rare typefaces. There's just something about learning how things were made (& worked) back in the day! As of MAY 2024, I'll be revamping my typewriter collection here on TWDB.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Torpedo 18b on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Torpedo Serial Number page and the Torpedo 18b By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
