Our Story

Typewriters matter.  And they matter to us.  Our journey into typewriter collecting and refurbishing began several years ago after spotting an ad on Craig's List for a Royal KMM typewriter from the 1940s.  After happily purchasing that machine, we were soon hooked.  There's just something about the beauty, functionality, and timelessness of typewriters that captures our imaginations and hearts.  Since then, we've purchased and refurbished dozens of typewriters from the early 1900s through the 1960s and have loved every minute of it.

We love to hear from other typewriter enthusiasts as well.  We host regular get togethers in Lexington so we can get a chance to meet people, hear their story, and maybe even help them with a typewriter problem.  Subscribe to our newsletter so you can stay up-to-date.

It's our goal to provide beautiful, refurbished typewriters to our customers.  Take a look around our website and please do email us with any questions you may have.  You may want to learn about what our refurbishing process entails as well.

Happy Typing!
