MANUAL typewriter whores are like people who enjoy shifting the gears in their car by hand. Control freaks, all of them.

Want an excellent manual typewriter? Go here and check out item #26: https://bmwmotorcycletech.info/sale.htm
Snowbum is an awesome old dude. I got some nice specialty tools from him a few months back and found lots of great info buried in his web pages.

I remember back in the early ‘70’s our office had 4 ‘secretaries’ in the typing pool and 3 of the ladies had modern IBM Selectric typewriters with the fancy spinning letter ball. Very futuristic. But one older lady still had a manual Royal that looks a lot like the one in the picture. Her fingers looked like small biceps.

All this proves one thing. I’m old as dirt.
