I learned to type on an old Remington Portable - which felt as if it weighed a ton! The wonder is that these machines still work (though it's not easy to buy the ribbons any more.) Fine photo, and I love the guardian dragon!
These are great old machines. Most of my students have never seen one, and know nothing about them. Have a friend who has a large collection of typewriters. This photo is perfect in b&w.
Lovely b&w photo!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you!
