Here's an attendee with her Olivetti Valentine, with a special one-of-a-kind keyboard, which features a Yen Symbol!
Here was something I've NEVER seen... A reporter who just interviewed Mike and I walked over to a corner where an SM-9 was sitting, opened his notebook, and started typing his news story on the SM-9!! He said it brought back many memories from when he started journalism way back when...
sweet! How many people came to participate? Did they get gawkers too?
ReplyDeleteI covet or yearn for a few special portables like your new hermes, my collection is all whatever I can find, but I get lucky sometimes. check out my blog for the latest two.

About a dozen or so people came to participate, and it was really fun! And yes, there were gawkers. And don't worry, just keep looking, and you'll find the typewriters you want! I waited a year and a half to get my hands on a Hermes Rocket, and now I've got one! And I like the two posts about Corona Week as well! That Silent-Super is a steal!
