I have a very old Underwood portable myself. If I leave it unused in its case for more than 6 months, I have to clean and lube it before use and periodically, I have to adjust it. It's a pain in the butt, but somehow I can't let it go. It's beautiful.

Did you know that the FBI has an amazing collection of every sort of typewriter font and ink old typewriters had? I've even heard they're pretty good at determining when government documents have been forged and altered. Imagine that...

Wow, that makes lots of sense. The FBI would have all that capability.

It also seems the General retired a year before one of the memos were typed.
They really have to see if those old typewriters could do that as a feature as well. LOL
