The purple ribbon comes from The Vintage Typewriter Shoppe!; they also have Green, Red and Pink. I will be trying out the green soon. I thought at first I could live without ever typing on a Brother typewriter.  Some thing like never needing to drive a VW Bug… Things change. It would be too easy to call this typewriter “Harry” so I’ll just call him: “OZ”.

Wow, I wonder where VTS gets PINK ribbon … anyway, nice li’l Wizard.
It is nice…
I’ve been rather enamoured with Brother machines lately myself. They are very well designed and friendly machines to type on. The more of them I find, the more I like them.
T. Munk…. Brother is a brand name that I grew-up with…yet it did not inspire me to try its product. I felt that they were the McDonalds of typewriters… I wanted something with more class.
Forgetting I eat at McDonalds all the time. I like them. I like the Wizard.
Gee
