My typewriter matches this page (Black & White)…

I never thought a two tone black/white typewriter would look so beautiful.  This 1955 Underwood Quiet Tab Deluxe is ready for any party.  Formal tux, black tie affairs… Trips to the zoo to hang with Penguins or Zebras…. like to think it is the typewriter of choice for the men in black.

300 miles on the C-17 Brooks Cambium (rubber) Saddle

When the rubber meets the road… of something like that?  At 300 miles the Brooks Cambium feels like it did at 12.  Which is good and bad in its way.  Right out of the box it felt like a leather brooks after several hundred miles; the leather gets better the more miles you put in.  So far the Rubber stays the same.
