Description:
After watching the documentary, California Typewriter (Sept 2017 in Irvine, CA), went on Craigslist and found this Hermes 3000. Love how it looks. Bought it from a man who said his grandmother or mother gave it to him when he was in college. Spent $200 getting it cleaned and getting the carriage serviced. Too much, I think, but it's a beautiful machine and I'm so happy to have it. I probably use it more than any other. (10/2017)

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Hermes 3000 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Hermes Serial Number page and the Hermes 3000 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
