Mrs Muir's Scheidegger Portable Hasn't Given Up the Ghost Yet

Gifted
I can fully appreciate why Richard Polt likes using his Scheidegger Princess-Matic so much. It's certainly a lovely machine to type with.

Godawful

Nico Backhaus in Cologne, the gentlemen selling this item (I won't say where because I don't want to eSwear), contacted me last year with some information on the Scheidegger Typomat. My post on it is here.

    I am a bit late catching up with your recent posts due to travel.

    That Princess-Matic looks just like mine, which I love except, perhaps, for its rather heavy carriage shift.

    You are right about the poor visibility of many "wedges." A step backwards!
