The Classic Typewriter Promise.

What you'll get:

A beautiful writing machine to inspire decades of writing enjoyment. Serviced, lubricated, and ready to use. These are adjusted by an expert factory-trained technician, to bring them up above anything you can find online.

I want to imagine that opening the box is like opening the curtain on a warm spring day: a glow of delight fills you.

Imagine the box with the 'Classic Typewriter' imprint delivered to your door. (Unless anonymity is requested).

Features:

  • Each machine passes our rigorous 14 point mechanical inspection.

  • The machine comes with our 'famous Classic Typewriter Guarantee'.

    (It will be working on arrival, or we will remedy the situation).

  • A Lifetime Trade In Policy.

    (Trade it in for the value you paid toward another machine as long as we're in business).

  • A copy of the original manual.

    (Original if we have it, or a digital copy).

  • Safe, eco-friendly packaging. (Double-walled 250 lbs pound tested box, secured carriage).

    (We've shipped over 400 machines with very few problems).

  • A new ribbon, on vintage spools.

    (We opt for high-end silk or cotton ribbons, for a more vintage feel, on vintage metal ribbon spools).

  • Machine support. (We realize that it may be intimidating to embrace an older technology, so you'll have support where needed).

  • A digital guide to using your new (vintage) machine and replacing supplies.

  • New or refurbished platen and rollers.

  • New feet or rollers as needed.

We source the best condition machine available, serviced by skilled technicians and ready to write.
