My current collection of 9 standard typewriters clocks in at 289.6 pounds (131.6 kg). Which one(s) should I take to the type-in at Vromans Bookstore this Saturday, May 10th at 1:00pm?
Which machines are you bringing?
Front row (left to right): ’51 Remington Super-Riter, ’56 Remington Standard, ’55 Royal HH, ’58 Royal FP (gray, 16″ carriage), ’57 Royal FP (gray)
Back row (left to right): ’45 Remington 17, ’50 Royal KMG, ’61 Royal FP (yellow), ’77 Olympia SG3
I think either the Remington 17 or Royal FP in yellow should be brought!
That’s a lovely assortment of desktop standard typewriters you’ve got by the way!
You have excellent taste in typewriters
If you brought two, you could select two that are on opposite ends of the timeline or style like the yellow royal and the olympia.
I wish that I was closer to y’all. I’d love to check out a type-in one day. I haven’t seen one in PDX since I started accumulating them.
@chrisaldrich Great lineup. I’d take a portable or two especially if there are stairs.
It is on the second floor, but they’ve fortunately got an elevator. I’m thinking that I’ll take two standards, 3 portables, and 1 ultraportable.
