Too expensive for the ordinary bloke. I had an old pre-war Remington portable.
Me too!
Archeological !!!
State of the art.
Remember? I sure do! You could hear it a block away! I've also typed with the old FACIT (Swedish) machines (both with the arms and with the rotating ball). BANG! BANG! BANG! Atetr a half hour - deaf, deaf, deaf! Wha... you talking to me? Thanks for the funny memories! :-)
I learned typing on this and an old Royal manual
I used a similar one only about 10 years ago in the museum, where I was drawing and discribing archeologic finds :)
I recall them and also Marchant calculators that weight probably 20 pounds . I used them during the late 60's as a draftsman for a steel fabrication .http://www.vintagecalculators.com/html/marchant.html
It looks quite modern compared to the ones I remember!
Superb capture my friend. God bless.
Do you have trouble getting ribbons for it?
