Another Typewriter Shop Biting the Dust
I just read an article in The Milford Daily News that states Tom Furrier will be closing Cambridge Typewriter on March 31. Sad to see the end of such a great shop.
It is sad to see another support pillar for the typewriting community is bidding farewell. Any business associated with the retro technology including typewriters going out is a blow to the aficionados. Technologies come and go, but there are some technologies which have a committed enthusiasts base that trust the proven technology more than the latest state of the art alternatives. I hope someone comes forward to just carry on the legacy and provide support to people like us.
