I've long since sold this L C Smith, but I made this video about two years ago to remember it by using all the wonderful video skills I learnt in my videojournalism class. This is the first time I've actually shown it.

In other news, I'm starting work on a Centralised Typewriter Repair Resource (the fancy name which I have given it for now that will likely be scrapped for something very, very catchy) which can be seen on Welcome to the Typosphere.

Corona Four / Obsolete Communication Forms

1925 Corona Four H608372

When mentioning the pinnacle of 1930s portable typewriter designs, I am not including all European designs since I've only had the chance to use an Olympia. I understand that Triumph or Continental might be the winner.

This reminds me of a moon landing on many levels.

Typosphere III featuring Imperial De Luxe 5

Seems like this is a bit of a thing for me now. It's a lot of fun and good practice.

Typosphere III featuring Hermes 2000

The third year of Philosophothought and the typosphere proper deserves a poster, I should say.

Typosphere-derived words / Ned the typewriter dog

Usually you see typewriter cats. Not here I'm afraid, even though I love cats.

I add typospherical to the list, a pretty obvious one.
