This is part of a continuing series of paintings in my sketchbook. It was meant to be a daily painting project throughout the month of October, but since I got sidetracked on another project, I'll keep on anyway.
Tin toy typewriters
I used to illustrate for Bride's magazine back in the days when I lived in New York and when I had occasion to visit the office of the Editor-In-Chief, I was covetous of her collection of vintage tin litho typewriters. Here are a few cool ones, mostly from the 1950s.
Here's a nice collection from Collectors Weekly
