Re: Recent Acquisitions Thread
I got a Corona 3 folding machine last week. Got some minor stuff repaired and I need to do some cleaning and polishing, but it should be cool!
Smith Premier typewriters are cool!

Re: Recent Acquisitions Thread
Impetuous! But not a bad price at all. And it even comes with a cleverly balanced, half-chewed eraser ;)

Re: Recent Acquisitions Thread
I played with the colour a bit because thisimage looked a bit too blue; in reality I think the machine is a bit more green, and the top a bit more cream... I'm really looking forward to it!

Re: Recent Acquisitions Thread
i thought it would take forever and a ton of money to find it but i was wrong. After getting the ribbon vibrator to work on both red and black, I decided I liked blue much better....introducing my 1956 Smith Corona Sterling with the veritical script.....

Re: Recent Acquisitions Thread
Love that! I love those Smith-Coronas. Is that like the script in Spazmelda's Hermes?

Re: Recent Acquisitions Thread
I've never seen this typeface on a Hermes so I don't know. I have a script Hermes and it's very different from this, more slanted, more slim. So far I've only seen this typeface on S-Cs, Underwoods, and Royals.
