I don't have any original pics because I have not been home yet, but my mom picked it up from an estate sale yesterday.

It's a 1929 Underwood Portable.

Perfect working condition, clean, and has spare ribbons.



This puts my typewriter count up to a disturbingly unnecessary amount.

That'll work well with your online business plan.

What exactly constitutes a "distubringly unnecessary amount"? Can you really use the word disturbing when describing type writers?

Now you just need an overcoat, fedora, 3 piece wool suit, and a piece of paper with the word "Press" tucked into your hat band and you'll be all set!

Used to have an old typewriter similiar to that. Came from my grandfather, but I could never get the thing to work worth a crap. Think it eventually got sold at a garage sale for a couple of bucks. Very nice though.

I wish I knew where our old typewriter was. We had two, one that was manpowered like that, and an electric IBM. Such a satisfying sound.

You should take that thing into a Starbucks and do stories on it. You'd be so Indie, you wouldn't even know who you are anymore.

Good call.

Also, bring a copy of On the Road by Kerouac and make it noticeable. Bonus points if you smoke American Spirits.
