I don't even remember where they all came from: these mutilated, disabled writing machines loaded onto my basement shelves. Some were donated, some came from thrift stores, some seem to have been generated spontaneously.
Often they've provided a useful part here, another there. But the sheer tonnage has been weighing on my mind as well as on my shelves.
Half-functional remnants of once gorgeous typewriters ...
Now-inoperative carcasses of once productive office machines ...
To the rescue: Trevor and Becca Brumfield of TB Writers Plus!
They came by this morning and filled their pickup to the brim.
Destination: Dayton, where they're running a typewriter repair business the right way and planning for the long term.
My parts machines will continue to help writers write, bringing their twentieth-century technology into a twenty-first century that sorely needs it. Bon voyage!
So glad to hear that they have found a good home. TB Writers Plus has been my go-to place for parts recently.
