I've always been fascinated with old Underwood typewriters. In fact, my first business card incorporated an Underwood into its design:


Needless to say I was stoked when Robin's parents gave me a working 1911 Underwood 5 for Christmas. All the keys are present, all of the paint is still on. It needs some oil and some ink but, beyond that, it's a gorgeous piece of hardware that's sitting in my office right now. As soon as I clean it up and get it working I'll be sure to take some pictures of it.
