My typewriter arrived
It’s an eBay find, of course: a 1922 Underwood Portable. I’ve wanted one of these for a couple of years; I tried to buy one earlier this year and got ripped off, but this time the goods arrived as described, and I am charmed.
It needs a bit of cleaning; the “figure” key sticks, and the space bar doesn’t always work. Still, it’s exactly what I was looking for, and I intend to fix it up and take good care of it.
there is no other way than this.
only the attempt brings wisdom
without practice our thoughts remain hollow.
how many times is enough?
