IIX. Zurich Typehunt.

IIX. Zürcher Typehunt - 24.1.13.

Bertastrasse. No typewriters, as usual.

The Royals at Citroën-Garage, next to each other - for the first time.

Hermes Baby.

Olympia Carrera de Luxe electronic typewriter - new here.

Swedish PlentOgraf

Also new: Brother Super 7900 - a quite spacy brother with ball head.


The Horde - untouched, except for the keys of the Hermes Media, which aren't jammed anymore.

The owner of this store (with an esoteric touch) on the second floor was sure that he had a typewriter, but couldn't find it.

At Salvation Army: A new Olivetti wedge.

And, to my great surprise, the Tippa was still there. I didn't expect that one to stay for long - it's reasonably priced and at Salvation Army!

VII. Zurich Typehunt.

VII. Zürcher Typehunt - 17. Januar 2012.
-Please excuse the late posting, scheduling didn't work.-

Snowy Bertastrasse - no typewriters at Berta 6.

Citroën-Garage: The Hermes Baby, the longer the more beat-up, moved to the other side of  the aisle - and got a hefty price tag.

The Royal is still there, accompanied by two sewing machines.

Schreibmaschinenwalzen erneuern

Schreibmaschinenwalzen erneuern. Der Gummi, mit dem Schreibmaschinen- walzen beschichtet sind, kann fiber die Jahre spréde werden. Als Folge davon kann der Anschlag der Maschine sehr hart werden, aber auch Lécher durch den kaum gebremsten Einschlag der Typenhebel im Papier en$stehen. In Europa gibt es noch folgende Unternehmen, die Walzen neu beziehen: Christian Hartig GmBH Hofheim D www.serv1ce-tools.de 06192 921650 Tel.
