vintage typewriter




I bought a typewriter on eBay this week and it arrived today. It is beautiful! It's a Remington Remette from 1936 with round glass keys. I wanted it to add *real* typewritten words to my collage art. There is just **something** about real type. And, I can do one line or one word of type easily - which is sort of a pain on a computer - uses a large piece of paper.

I am a happy camper with my 72 year old new toy!
