No 8 Typewriter of the Day: Hermes 3000 Series 3

TOTD 8 in my series. This is an absolutely mint Hermes 3000. When I bought it it was like opening a time capsule. This model, I call it the series 3 was made in France by Jappy for Hermes. I believe they had bought the company and the factory. Most purists shun this model because it was not made in Switzerland. I like it, here's why, early in my Career I was working with my partner at the time Tomas V. We were working raising money for drilling and we had a little office in the Anglo-American Building on 9th Avenue in Calgary. We needed a typewriter and Tomas's wife Heidi lent us hers, she had brought it to Canada from Germany. It had a German keyboard which really slowed you down on it when you typed but it was a perfect machine.

The Anglo-American Building is long gone, demolished to build Bankers Hall and I assume the typewriter is also long gone. I lost track of Tomas after he moved to New York City but I still think of him, his wife and the typewriter.

Here is the picture for your viewing pleasure.
