Typewriters

Typewriters are beautiful functional machines from a bygone era. While many are still in professional use today, the majority of typewriters fall into the hands of hobbyists, creatives, and collectors. They find a calling to what others might consider junk, in the tactile sensations of the keyboard, the sounds of mechanical productivity, and the beautiful designs tracing back decades at a time. They’re hardened stapes of office equipment, and a monument to human history— both in the way they shaped the world, and how they gave voices to those silenced by oppression and society.

For sale: Manual typewriters. All sales are final, and come with a 90 day guarantee, but will last more than a lifetime. Each machine has been professionally serviced, adjusted, and cleaned, as in guaranteed perfect working order with a fresh inked ribbon to boot! Typewriters are amazing, tactile machines, and each one is unique in the way it handles and the way it writes.

ALL MACHINES are rigorously type tested, and working like new. Though they may show signs of age, the quality of work they produce is held to the highest standards.

Prices are judged by overall condition, functionality, and desirability of the model. Keep in mind that some of these machines can be over 100 years old, and the cosmetic condition is a reflection of the machine’s previous life, and is not indicative of function. Look over the photos, read the descriptions, and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

In regards to trade-ins: I will accept any machine for a value of $20 towards both sales and repairs
