Description:
The Princess of my collection. Found this beauty on eBay and noticed the seller was up the highway from me so she allowed me to come pick it up. The stars aligned on my day off and I drove 196 miles round trip.
It was in great condition, I’ve just done superficial cleaning. The only thing wrong with it is it’s missing the ribbon margin indicator. But I don’t care.

Mid-30s in Auburn, Washington USA. My main hobby is getting and sending mail: I do Postcrossing and penpal letters, so along with that I enjoy going to thrift stores, doing paper & collage art, and collecting & using stationery items of all kinds. I do a lot of reading and journal writing, weird documentary & movie watching, and sewing when I have the time.
I use the machines almost daily, for personal correspondence and creative writing attempts. I look for typewriters with unique typefaces, and I have a modest variety of brands.
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.
