Definitely jealous of those awesome machines! I guess you could say that the Corona 3 is my "grail machine," though it's not really rare. Fantastic colors!

Miguel Chávez said...

Both machines are beautiful, indeed! Congratulations!

Alice and I have to add to the chorus of praise - they are both lovely machines.

Richard P said...

Lovely!

The WordPlay kids are going to jump with joy at their colored ribbons. Thanks!

Ted said...

Beautiful, just beautiful machines. (:

With two Corona 3s in working order I'd told myself, "Enough, already!". But since now you have collected another, well ...

Question - who is your California ribbon source? And is it possible to obtain "semi-inked" ribbons? Several times I've replaced a fading ribbon on a machine that produced faint, but very crisp characters, only to find that the new ribbon splatted squishy, fat globs that didn't do justice to the typeslugs.

I have the same typewriter in it's carrying case, but with a black front, not green or blue, together with 4 ribbons and the original instructions on 'How to use'. Lovely condition. Is this typewriter worth money and, if so, how much would you say? Many thanks for your help.
