“The no. 9 is the last of the classic Blickensderfer typewheel machines, a direct descendant of the Blickensderfer no. 5, the ingenious little machine that amazed the world when it was introduced in 1893
the no. 9 has a solid, substantial-looking body and a frame, decorated with gold pinstripes, that surrounds the keyboard. This frame is structurally unnecessary, but makes the typewriter look a little more like conventional typebar machines. Unlike the no. 8, the no. 9 does not have an elevated scale or a tabulator. The ink roller on the no. 9 is fastened onto a curved arm that folds down to the side, very neatly, when the typewriter is stored in its wooden case.
Since the no. 9 is one of the less common Blickensderfer models and the final creation of George C. Blickensderfer, it deserves the interest of every collector.”

Olivia was so wonderful to deal with, she went out of her way to ship an oversized package in a timely manner. She also found the most economic way to ship. I’ve purchased several things from her and have been so pleased.
