  1. Nice poem and a beautiful typeface. I was wondering if you used and IBM or had a fancy manual typewriter with a special typeface.

  2. That’s a beautiful machine Richard. I love the lines and and that color. Certainly more elegant than the behemoths I used in my youth.

    1. Thanks. This curvy design marks it as a first-generation Selectric. It was repainted by Brian Brumfield.

  4. Thank you so much Richard! I didn't know that I got picked. The machine is as elegant as its calligraphy typeface.

  5. As I recollect, back in 1980s and 90s, I saw a lot of these curvy IBMs on TV and in movies here in China. They look so space age. Thank you again for trying out all these characters.
