Description:
Silver-Reed SR 180 De Luxe. This is another Japanese typewriter from my collection. Mine does not have a case and has seen better days. I've cleaned it and it is is complete working order. I gave this machine to my kids so they can practice typing. Most of the time, they just create smiley faces by utilizing the dead key to make the 👀.

I'm a software engineer in the Chicagoland area. I've been collecting "vintage" vinyl, computers, mechanical keyboards and typewriters since I was a kid.
I enjoy problem solving and puzzles, so naturally fixing I fell in love with fixing and maintaining mid century typewriters. Today, we generally stare at screens throughout the day, but I've found it's very therapeutic to turn off my phone and fix some mechanical machines.
