Enjoyed the video! I agree that beauty and quality peaked with the glossy, black round-key models of the 1920s and 30s. They’re my favorites and make up most of my collection of about 85 machines. I also favor machines in near-perfect condition over ones that show their years.
Great thoughts, thank you!
Thank you Joe I appreciate your videos and reflections as well.
Well said, I also spend my day at the computer for work and find my typewriter(s) a sweet escape from that.
Thank you! I agree! What typewriter do you enjoy using lately?

I agree, love those things. Golden era!
Found this quite interesting. Love old manual typewriters.
Thank you. They're oddly magical.
What's your opinion on a 1940s underwood typewriter as an everyday writing tool?
Will do the trick!
