In case anyone really liked the older Classic 12 I have, there's one like it on shopgoodwill.com right now, along with a few other interesting variations of well-known models.  So I'm breaking from my script series to show them as they have a short shelf-life.

This made a few headlines around here.  Takes me back to a certain day in Zurich on a type-hunt.

And now a couple of leftovers I found on the phone from my last trip to the bins.
