I give away typewriter parts… in return I am blessed with “lost treasure”

I decide to do something nice… and I am blessed instantly…  I find what I had forgot 20 years ago

In the mood to type…

Starting to feel like I did when I wrote plays…. 40 years ago.  Back when I lugged my father’s Underwood around a college campus to type away…  I’ve had my moments writing for the spoken voice…

Type Two… return to type…

Just another day on a 110 year old machine.

My 1903 Underwood 4… a zombie typewriter.

The typing dead. I thought it was gone forever… then it began to move….

Lost & Found time…

Somehow I lose time when I type… then discover I had enough to type.  Not sure where the found time came from…

Things that last (Typewriters)… things that don’t computers…

Seems like every day my computer gets upgraded… but it doesn’t work any better.  With a typewriter a little oil and instant improvement… no upgrade required.

1946 Imperial 50 from novelty item to working typing wonder.

Perspective is everything.   Bought by one as a novelty and by another as tool for creative inspiration.  One kept it pristine another puts it back to work. Win! Win!

A type of friendship…

Just thought I would play with words today.

Only attached typewriter keys for me…

Just don’t get it… much better attached to a typewriter than hanging on someone’s ear… or neck… or arm or finger.
