Happy Typewriter Day from Tilly Adler-Tippa and Judith!

I'm still figuring out this blogging thing, never mind uploading a video. So in honor of the day I offer photographs of my little Adler Tippa, Tilly, with her German keyboard, and the short message she displays (with a few typos and spacing problems). Note the wine glass next to Tilly; that may explain the spacing problems. The message reads:

Hello Typosphere!

Friendly greetings from me and my proud mom, Judith. I happen to be her new little (old) Adler Tippa typewriter. Judith thinks I'm really cute, but have some quirks. Well, so does she!

Til later,

Yours,

Tilly

The day before the day!

Tomorrow is World Typewriter Day! OK, I may have added "World" to the name, but it is appropriate. I've been lurking in the typosphere the last couple weeks, reading blogs from Oz and Helvetia, to name just three, and was inspired to start my own.

Perhaps I had to start blogging: typewriters numbers eight, nine and ten arrived within the last couple weeks. Dang that eBay! But thank you, etsy, for bringing me my little Adler Tippa with the QWERTZ keyboard and umlauts that I have long wanted.

I will post pictures soon of the family members (both QWERTZ and QWERTY, and Sonia, the Russian Olivetti), and will also arrange to be photographed typing tomorrow, probably on the Tippa.

In the meantime, if anyone is interested in analog transportation, I have provided a link to my SO's commuter bicycling blog, "Just a Guy Who Rides a Bike." We are a car-free household!
