I'm enjoying these posts too much. This nasty crowd is swaying me from my course of withdrawal - I had been avoiding eBay in an attempt to quench my passion for typewriter acquisition. But I have fallen ... begun dickering for a Hermes 3000 ... I'm already anticipating the arrival of the UPS truck and that moment of bliss ... the rush as I dig into all the packing material ...
Looking at the photo up there again, of all the folks typing, I'm thinking what a unique and delightful sound that would be. So i'm hoping for a bit of video from the next type in. Looks like a great venue. I like it that the general public was able to get involved.

Thanks for the great examples / samples of typing from the type-in.
I can't wait to get to Pennsylvania and pick up the Royals that are awaiting me there.
I was hoping Scott's chrome typewriter was a Vogue.
Bill.... it almost was.
But that's another story.
Some damn funny comments in here. It had me chuckling.
Or chortling (not giggling, Anna).
one of the best by-products of a type-in is the stack of samples. Thanks for sharing.
Very entertaining. I see that the Everest got very favorable reviews!

When you first showed the Bijou I didn't understand why it is a cheque writer. NOW I see! Thanks for posting!
