Description:
Here we got another of my vintage toy typewriters. It's the exact same tin typewriter as the TippCo Standard, Standard I posted in a earlier gallery (https://typewriterdatabase.com/19xx-tippco-standard-standard.22842.typewriter) except it have the word Apex on the left side instead of Standard. It was sold under both I guess but I still count both as TippCo's since they both has the TippCo logo on the back and the same description on the backside.
This gallery is pretty empty of information from my usual galleries but I just wanted to share a bit of my collection even though the difference is quite small. I could add some dimensions if anybody would be interested though.
Hight: 8cm/~3.1", Depth 20cm/~7.9", Width 28cm/~11"
Platen width: 24.5cm/~9.6", but the real width you would actually could write on is 23cm/~9"

Hi my name is Kewin and I'm a 24 years old from Sweden. I have a few hobbies like drawing and playing guitar but I do also like myself some project here and there which is where my interest in typewriters fits in. I have always collected things through my life but I did not expect typewriters to be my next big passion in collecting. I started collecting typewriters in the beginning of 2022 and so far I have 80* of them (3 of which is currently disassembled) . I find it really enjoyable to pickup a typewriter at a thrift store/second hand and starting to clean it up and get it to a working condition to the best of my ability and knowledge. (Excuse all the dog hairs in my pictures, I do actually try to remove the hair before taking the pictures. xD) Cheers!
