What is I.T.A.M. without getting another typewriter? |
I was going to fix a problem and use this one tonight. I have not been posting with each typewriter I have in the order I received them. I have not posted once a day. No different today. This machine has more than the easy to fix problem. It'll be a day or two (time permitting) before I can try it.
Adler was a bit strange tonight. R and H were sticky. With use they freed. I guess it did not like being ignored for about 6 months. It is not as good of a typer as my Underwoods, but it beats most of what I have.
I know what it is but I won't say.
ReplyDeleteYour comment on the quality I find odd, as to me it seemed to only be of slightly lower quality than its predecessor.
Well, that escapement wheel looks like one I spent several happy evenings with a couple of months ago. So I will stick me neck out and suggest that what you have there, Bill, is a Frozen Facit 1620.
ReplyDeleteI think Tony's got it. (:
ReplyDeleteI can recognize a Facit by those metal arcs on either side of the typebasket. Which model, I dunno.
ReplyDeleteRichard is right - the mystery continues. The typewriter that gave me some fun was a Frozen Facit 1620. What we know about Bill's so far is that it is a _______ Facit ______. It will be interesting to have those blanks filled in .
