that typewriter has a good story behind it.
I was visiting my grandparents in arizona when I took these. i went to go run some errands and when I came back, I caught the tail end of a conversation about whether or not I'd be interested in a typewriter.
now, come on, OF COURSE i'd be interested in a typewriter. in fact, i'd been going to the culver city library every few weeks to use their pay typewriter.
as it turns out, my grandpa found the typewriter outside of his retirement home. he let it sit there for three weeks thinking that someone would come to pick it up. after three weeks he took it into the hallways and left it at the entrance, to see if anyone would pick it up. nobody picked up for two weeks.

this was the best present that i ever received, and I don't even know who gave it to me.
