Portable Re*****ons from this era remain some of my favourite machines. They're snappy, well made, and fun to use. This is a 1929 Re*****on Portable 3 that is now with its new owner.

A very cool find from earlier this year! First time I've seen an Icelandic keyboard in person, and on an Olympia SM9 of all things. This typewriter belonged to an Old English professor. Old English has a similar alphabet to Icelandic.

A budget 1935 Smith-Corona Standard flat-top with Pica typeface! While not perfect, it demonstrates the flat-top flair and works well. Other than some uneven letters and a couple of poorer printing ones, it's a smooth, snappy typer and in good mechanical condition. Cosmetically, the typewriter is in good condition, but there is a dent on the right side of the ribbon cover.

The typewriter comes with its original carrying case in fair condition and a printout of the user's manual. The case certainly shows its age, but it's solid and will protect the typewriter well. New typewriter feet have been installed.

Freshly serviced and available for sale on our website!

Made in Canada, this 1961 Smith-Corona Sterling in grey is a smooth, snappy typer and was a single-owner machine. The typewriter has a French-Canadian keyboard and Pica typeface. It's in great mechanical condition and good cosmetic condition. The paint is generally in good shape other than some discolouration on the sides of the typewriter.

The typewriter comes with its original carrying case in great condition and a printout of the user's manual.

Erikas are amazing typewriters! They're a fine addition to any collection. This 1963 Erika 10 went to its new home today.
