I have amazing news to share. Tomorrow I have an appointment to look at typewriters. Lovingly refurbished vintage typewriters. My life has been leading to this moment.

Will I buy one? Perhaps. Will I ask a lot of questions and try as many as I can? Definitely.

@emogene did you find any keepers? I gave way my ‘45 Corona and replaced it with 5 post-war Europeans.

@inkbear I brought home a 1959 Olympia SM3! My first, but I see the appeal of building a little collection.

@emogene great choice! The SM has impressive engineering. I got a wide carriage SM4 and had not used carriage (rather than basket) shift. Takes getting used to but the action is smooth. I lucked into an SF and if you want something you can carry easily it is pretty sweet.
