(Isn't it funny that it's only 6 years old!) Therefore, YOUR pictures are actually much more crisp than mine. <br /><br />I'll be posting after I get back home to The Woods, probably on Monday. The folks I'm staying with are technologically challenged and don't have a scanner.<br /><br />Thanks again for another extremely fun meeting, although it was far too short!

I just recently joined the typewriter owning ranks (thanks to Mike Speegle) since my mom sold the S&C Corsair I learned to type on in middle school.

Both machines look great. <br /><br />My Corona 3 is an earlier variation with the shift keys on one side only. It has threaded posts with small knobs holding the spools in place.
