Parker would appear to have been using the same machine 1946-1960, perhaps just the one model that he had acquired.Robert Messengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366507489948676594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248447883714712696.post-83147371983235456032012-02-05T12:21:49.675+11:002012-02-05T12:21:49.675+11:00Nope, it's not the Wanderer. ;)

On a further look at the second patent, it does say, "The carriage, keyboard and linkage mechanism may be of any well known commercial typewriter construction; the carriage illustrated being an Elliott Fisher apparatus."Robert Messengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366507489948676594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248447883714712696.post-82973329190009627332012-02-05T03:41:48.222+11:002012-02-05T03:41:48.222+11:00Very interesting.

I see the invention uses an Elliott-Fisher bookwriting typewriter, which seems like a good idea (the Keaton music typewriter also types down onto a flat surface). But were Elliott-Fishers still even being made this late?<br /><br />The upcoming March ETCetera will feature another remarkable music typewriter.Richard Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16232053429935587826noreply@blogger.com
