Reviews
[Alter's] accomplishment...is almost absurdly impressive. One wants to call it titanic or Olympian or even heroic, but those are the wrong words--pagan words. Alter will have to settle for one of the God-fearing Hebraic terms of praise that stipple his text: 'righteous' or 'strong' or, simply, 'wise.'

    Item was exactly as described and shown in pictures. I am so beyond impressed with how quickly seller got my item in the mail and shipped to me. The item was well packed in bubble wrap, cardboard book box and plastic wrap. I appreciate the seller taking extra care to make sure it arrived in such good condition. Highly recommend.

    Minor damage at shipping, but it was packed really good, with double box (a box within a box). I guess, with a 40 lbs typewriter, that’s unavoidable, unless you ship it with the factory carton. Very responsive with the messages. An excellent seller.
