My youngest son Martin is getting married tomorrow, to Laura James. The wedding will take place at Tuggeranong Homestead, where Charles Bean from 1919-25 typed the first two volumes of the Official History of Australia in the War of 1914-18. Instead of a Corona 3, the portable which Bean first used, it seems more appropriate on this occasion that the typewriter is an Olivetti Valentine:

That is GREAT Robert. Nothing better than a Valentine for the greatest day of Love.
Best wishes to the newlyweds!
Congratulations!
I was recently gifted 2 lovely electric typewriters. (Smith-Corona 2200 8ele and a Sears Communicator.)
The Sears is in excellent condition, works great! (I sort of love this machine- keeping it forever)
The only issue with the 2200 is the shift Key causes the letter to be lifted out of line (slightly higher). Could you please advise me on where I can get the information to repair this issue? I searched google to no avail. I want to sell this machine but not with the shift issue. Thank you in advance for any direction you can give me. --Midge
Martin y Laura se quedaron con la Valentine? Ojala si. Que mas escribirán con ella?
