A sale on March 16-17 in San Pedro, CA includes lots of typewriters, especially postwar office machines but also plenty of portables and some older machines (such as an Oliver 9). I expect it will be a good chance to get an affordable Selectric, KMM, SG3, or other excellent writing machine.
Go to this page and scroll through the photos until you start hitting the typewriters.

Right now they don't provide any details on exactly where and when the sale is. But you can send them an e-mail through their site, or visit them on Facebook.
Oh, to live nearby.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a seriously impressive collection... and not all of it is pictured! (Lots more were in their cases.) Absolutely dizzying scrolling through all those pictures; that will be a lucky haul for someone! Thanks for sharing; this was great eye candy.
ReplyDeleteI also noticed a Hermes 3000.1 (round) and several Olympia SM-cases with at least 1 SM inside.
ReplyDeleteThat photo is very impressive
Why can't there be a Chicago/Midwest version?!
