Well can you say we are not surprised?  We are only surprised by the magnitude of the tampering.



Bad data is the same as no data.

No. 27 Typewriter of the Day - Triumph Norm (German Keyboard)

No. 27 - TOTD: Triumph Norm (German Keyboard)

I can't remember when I bought this machine but I have a thing for Triumph typewriters,  One of my Professors, Dr. Eric Waldman used a Triumph, I don't know whether it was a Norm or a Perfeckt but I do remember he had it on a portable typing table next to his desk.  Dr. Waldman both participated in post WW2 European politics, In 1946 - 1949 he was one of the founders of West German Intelligence, later, he taught modern European politics at the University of Calgary.  I always assumed that he used the Triumph because of the German keyboard and I assumed he did a lot of work in German.  Dr. Waldman died in 2007 at the great age of 91.  if you are interested in Dr Waldman story during the war and the post war period follow this link militaryhistoryonline.

The other user of a Triumph was my favorite author Ian Fleming, one of his machines was a triumph.
Here is a picture of him sitting at the machine.  I am assuming that this picture was taken at Golden Eye in Jamaica.


This particular machine has a German Keyboard and is just the Norm so it is not on my favorite list but all the same it is not ready to go to Goodwill.


Enjoy,
