A new addition

This week my typewriter collection entered the late 20th century with the addition of an IBM Correcting Selectric III (thanks Chris & Marci).














With the IBM, I now have 10 in all and only 3 are electric. This "hobby" is one of no effort as the typewriters just seem to find me - and I only remember the origins of 5 of them. The oldest is, dare I say, the original laptop. A gift from my father-in-law, it's a folding Corona with a wood & leather case. It was made in Groton, NY and has a recent patent date of February 8, 1910.
