Typewriter in NYC Bookstore Window Display

Another typewriter sighting in NYC:

Crawford Doyle Booksellers in UES












This is a beautiful little bookstore in the Upper East Side. Books from floor to ceiling. Wooden library ladders on rails always win me over.  I saw the Corona walking by and loved the Sontag quote. The only issue I have is that the quote is laser printed in a really big font so people can read it from the street rather than actually typed out by the Corona.

So I've neglected my duties on my blog for a few months. My apologies but my recent relocation to the big apple took much longer than anticipated. I'm still unpacking. I left my typer collection back west in storage and brought only a handful over to use (which is still an overkill).  All but one are still in boxes along with my winter cloths which I will likely need to unpack soon.

Maybe I'll get to it since it seems like I'll be stormed in for a few days with Sandy visiting.

Typewriter Spotting in New York City:

Sorry, I disappeared for a bit from the typosphere. I made a misjudgment of planning a vacation before a cross country move, and it's come to bite me back now with the pile of stuff I must do. Anyhow, here are some spottings in the Big Apple.
Sale on cloths, not the typerwriters! : )
Rag and Bone, what appears to be a clothing boutique, has chosen this summer season's window display to be of typewriters (or maybe it's permanent). These were various window displays from their stores around Manhattan.

This was a very cool store in Williamsburg. I think it was called dijital (I'll need to check on that).
