Shall do.
Awww, well, the sentiment ...Hi, Teeritz! Shall do.<br /><br />Awww, well, the sentiment counts. Maybe I'll be able to visit your continent one day, and come bearing gifts for my Typospherian friends down there; I sure would like to, anyway. Thank you for the encouragement! I will have American and Japanese militaria as well. I need to go play catch-up on your blog; I thought you were still working! Best of luck in your search, my friend!A.R.M.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11647457788080424015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130418293737366087.post-71710314417943912802014-03-11T03:25:09.208-07:002014-03-11T03:25:09.208-07:00Good to hear from you, AS!

I'm not sure if he's looked at it. <br />I hope all is well in your world, and I wish you the very best of luck with the antiques selling venture. If you were in my neck of the woods, I'd be snapping up some ex militaria for sure. Once I get a job, that is. teeritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05421337385763144173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130418293737366087.post-73349206407988637952014-03-09T16:41:23.343-07:002014-03-09T16:41:23.343-07:00Thanks Bill!

I've had to do a lot of dustbunny removal and working with stiff typebars on some that I've allowed to sit dormant. Shame on me.<br /><br />Thank you for the compliment! I've long wanted to get this machine running again, especially since it really only needed a drawband. It was a two person job but it's a really great machine to type on. I'm going to refurbish the case; there is old mold inside and the paper is peeling everywhere.<br /><br />A plain Model P? I can't even imagine one in gray; don't think I've ever seen one. How odd! I wonder if it would be considered a one-off of the usually colorful series?<br /><br />Thank you very much! I'll be posting updates as I go. I will be selling some machines, but I'm always so weary about putting them in public. I'm going to need a large, locking glass cabinet, and I think I'll have to price them pretty ridiculously to keep them safe from choppers. However, I'll do discounts for someone who can prove to me they're a collector and would take care of them; I do care about their ultimate fates. That being said, I'm pretty sure I'll be selling far more Japanese antiques and Russian millitaria than typewriters. ;)A.R.M.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11647457788080424015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130418293737366087.post-73480188836247714492014-03-09T08:44:52.230-07:002014-03-09T08:44:52.230-07:00Good to see another typecast from you.

It did not sell I should have, but a plain gray Royal P?<br /><br />Best of success with your business venture.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6130418293737366087.post-80802150280342010402014-03-09T05:00:24.104-07:002014-03-09T05:00:24.104-07:00*Functioning* Functing?
