New Hope for the Zurich Thrift Stores

Note: I wrote this post in April, since then, it was buried in the Drafts.

I've visited the thrift store a couple of times since then, and there were always some typewriters.

Location: Badenerstrasse 415, Zürich. Trams 2/3 to Albisriederplatz or 2 to Letzigrund.

Dear readers,

tomorrow, maschinengeschrieben and the Swiss Typopshere are going to be prominently featured in Tages-Anzeiger, one of the most important newspapers in Switzerland. Half a million people, 1/16th of the swiss population, read it every day.

Tomorrow's post is also going to be the 250st post on maschinengeschrieben, but due to this special situation, I won't celebrate it, but publish a bilingual post on "Technology".
