the vintage typewriter
In December we visited Grandma Beck. She is living in an assisted living home and is 95 years old. She communicates with her family by typing weekly letters on her typewriter. My dad showed the kids her typewriter and they were completely AMAZED! They’d never seen such a thing.
A few days later, Abe asked if we could buy a typewriter. Awesome! I found this one on etsy for over $600.
I don’t think we’ll be buying a typewriter, son.
I remember we had a red typewriter growing up. I liked typing on it. It was fun to get all the keys stuck together by the ribbon. In college I used an electric typewriter to address labels for work. Anyhoo…. here’s to vintage typewriters.

As if!
My grandparents had a typewriter. That was something we loved to do as kids, typed up letters to our grandparents that they would oo and aaah over.
