No.41 - Typewriter of the Day: Smith Corona Silent Super 1958

No. 41 - TOTD Smith Corona Silent Super

This tan machine was made in 1958.  It needs a better cleaning the Heinz gave it, everything was a bit stiff when I opened it up but it seems to be is very good condition with no damage.  I will have to use it some more, right now I am warming it up.  It was interesting to have both the pamphlet for the machine and the typing notes that Smith Corona offered their customers.

Looking onto the web I see that another writer who used a Silent Super was
Dr Seuss or as known to Adults Theodore Seuss Geisel.  Thanks again to Richard Polt and his site for help in finding the info.

Politicized science is not science it is just propaganda in support of Government policy.  We are in trouble when we lower the bar on scientific research.  The inability to reproduce results reported is the heart of the matter.  Like errors in math it makes the results irrelevant.  It is examples like this that destroy to confidence in Government.  They believe this bogus science and want us to believe it as well.

Nice to see the children getting excited but let's get real - climate and weather are ultra vires the power of any court on the planet.  Canute and hubris here for the benefit of the child crusade for Global Wrming is a link to the story of King Cnut. Cnut by the way is the original spelling of the King's name.

No. 40- Typewriter of the Day: Hermes Media 3 (Series 2)

No. 40 - TOTD: Hermes Media 3 (Series 2)

Here is a series 2 Hermes Media 3 with script font.  I didn't notice in the pictures when I bought this machine that the carriage knobs were broken.  I was interested in the script typewface and the low price.  Heinz overhauled this for me and managed to replace the knobs.  Media 3 version of the Hermes line is a stripped down machine with no touch control, tabs or the fancy margin inidcators of the 3000, other then that they are identical.

As for  writer that used a Media 3, sadly I have not located one yet but I will keep looking.

Have a great day.
