A red Alpina SK24 from 1955! What a wild typewriter! Acme specializes in extraordinary typewriters--but we also provide ordinary typewriters at low cost to students, "starving artists" or anyone who truly wants to type. Available now at Acme! #typewriter #midcentury #mindfulness

The Model 18 typewriter from Torpedo is such a wonderful and sought-after typewriter that we try to keep them "in stock" at the Acme Studios Gallery. We have a new one available, with a new platen! If you don't know the Model 18, ask a #typewriter aficionado. Or contact us!

We had young people visiting the gallery during the Crossing Border festival. A #typewriter is not about nostalgia, it's about "Now": distraction-free writing, privacy, environmental concerns. Join us at Acme Studios, surrounded by beautiful art, for the "typewriter renaissance".

The "Blue Bird" Model 18 is among the most coveted of typewriters. It is marvelous looking and a dream to use. The rich blue cover was an option when purchasing new. Acme is offering an exceptional Blue Bird #typewriter now. The beautiful two-tone colour is completely original.

Voss typewriters were only produced between 1948 and 1965. They are highly regarded for their exceptionally high-quality construction and their superb technical and aesthetic design. We have one now available at Acme in a stunning two-tone, blue and cream colour. #typewriter

Don’t let the brand name fool you. The Princess 100 is a fantastic typewriter (in fact, ALL Princess typewriters are). Made in Germany in 1971, the P100 is a beautifully engineered machine, and typing on this all-metal ultra-portable tank is a joy.

For many #typewriter enthusiasts, the Halda Model P is the "holy grail" of typewriters due to an impeccable combination of elegant design, rich colour, rarity, and beautiful typing feel. Acme has this one available now. It is in exceptional condition and has historic interest.

Completely original, this "Firehouse Red" 1950 S.I.M. #typewriter looked this way when it was made. It has not been repainted! When people walk into our gallery the first reaction is usually: "How wild!", or some version of that sentiment in Dutch, French or Spanish. What a gas!

A fine and rare Triumph Norm #typewriter. From 1943, in the middle of WW2, it is unusual in the QWERTY keyboard. Despite the war, non-German (QWERTZ) keyboards were produced for export, primarily to German-occupied Netherlands. This one was owned by a merchant in Amsterdam.

This beautiful Princess #typewriter is a Princess Standard, a model released in the mid-1960s to compete with the successful Hermes Baby. It has the same exceptionally fine mechanics of the Princess 300 (and 200 and 100) but was less expensive. Of course, available now at Acme.

Nothing says "Christmas" to a typewriter lover like the famous, red Hermes #typewriter. A stunning presence and a great typer. The ultimate portable! With the QWERTY keyboard AND a new platen, it doesn't get much better than this. Available, as you may have guessed, only at Acme.

At Acme, we give nicknames to some of our favourite typewriters. This wonderful, all-black, SM4 has earned the nickname: "King of Spades". It has the beautiful, sought-after Congress typeface. For many the Olympia SM4 is considered to be the "King of the Typewriters". #typewriter

Acme Studios is known for finding the finest European typewriters from the Golden Age of #typewriter manufacturing—and this like-new 1946 Clipper is outstanding proof of that. And this, our first new offering for 2024, may blow the rest of the year out of the water—but no matter!
