My new toy

Well...new to me. 
Found her at a garage sale. She needs a bit of cleaning but works!

It's also come to my attention that blogger once again is having issues with embedded comments. For the time being I've changed mine back to the old pop-up style.
Off to a church rummage sale this morning...
wish me luck!

    I have my old typewriter from high school! I just bought it a new ribbon and it works great except......you really do have to pound those keys. Those typist of yore had very strong fingers, I kid not!

    Great find!

    If your ribbon is dry, you can re-ink it yourself. Let me know and I'll give you the details.

    I bought an old Hermes at our local secondhand shop, I've had loads of fun with it and they still make the ribbons! Mx
