It was called a 9lb wonder back in its day (1938), looks great and types okay.  I got on board and rambled across a page… the other day.

Types on shows…
I started to type… and by the end I found my frustrations stayed on the page. Another good reason to own a typewriter.
Remounted… Demountable…. excellent!
I needed to reverse the ribbon on my Demountable… which meant lifting up and taking off the frame; I moved something a fraction of a inch and the 87 year Demountable acts like a teenager… it is quick… has a light touch… wow!!!
Remington Model 5 Streamline…
I saw a dusty typewriter, no marking… the owner could not ID… but I knew. So I offered $21.00… just when you think you are out… the type pulls you back!
The pens successor… according to National Typewriter!
The logo said it all: “The pens successor…” People still use pens everyday… manual typewriters not so much!
With a Royal Citadel I feel ready to hit the road…
The Royal Citadel… and the Singer Scholastic seem the same… except the Citadel was 1/2 the price of any Singer I’ve come across in similar condition. Not to mention the Royal Dart…
Typewriter… tough love for the mind!
I hear the thud… and the thud is good…
Noise of a noiseless typewriter…
Year 4 begins: 1934 Bar-let No. 1
I’ve wanted a Bar-let for years… so I start this new one with one…
The Torpedo types great!!
The Antares is a 10 to look at but just okay to type with. The Underwood Quiet Tab has good looks and good typing. The Torpedo just types great!!
