I feel my luck, I assure you. That's the best find in a long time. Too bad for Goodwill though. shopgoodwill.com would have cleaned up on that one. I can't find many pics of this color scheme, were thy more likely to be script? I wonder...
I picked up a cream and blue/grey script Torpedo 18 (no tab) recently. I'm not sure if two cream two-tone Torpedos constitutes a trend, but it is a data point.
Excellent Typewriter Karma has come your way. Relish it!
ReplyDeleteHoly Moly! What luck (or destiny).
ReplyDeleteScore!
ReplyDeleteNice one... Hey, that's quite a beautiful machine!
You are so lucky to find a nice machine and script also!
ReplyDeleteMy God. The elusive machine of my dreams and there you go finding it for six bucks. I'm beside myself with envy and so happy for you.
ReplyDeleteIf you EVER want to move that one along...well...here I am.
A most excellent find! Typewriter Kharma strikes again (:
ReplyDeleteWell-deserved, Peter, congratulations!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! That is the dream machine and dream deal of the week! I love that color combination.
ReplyDeleteOh, what luck! An amazing find, to be sure. I would be near tears to have found this at Goodwill...
ReplyDeleteWow!!! That is a stupendous find, your best yet... well, after my new Galaxie, of course :)
ReplyDeleteLove this Torpedo - many a time have I coveted the exact same thing on eBay, and watched it fetch stratospheric prices.
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteHaving recently and most unexpectedly acquired 2 very fine machines, I am SO sharing your excitement and joy at this new machine.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. It's like strawberries and cream, delicious as!
ReplyDeleteGood things come to good folk.
