The deals like this wonderful one are still out there, but I wonder for how long. More and more I am hearing from not-yet-typewriter buffs that they see a rising interest in them.
I"m not surprised. I can easily see these Futura 800s becoming more collectible. They have a terrific look to them, a wonderful aesthetic. Well-proportioned and retro-futuristic, with nice details and clean lines. I'm glad I took the chance on this one.
Steal of the year.
