Glen,
Great job and wonderful directions.
I have a model 101 portable (circa May 22, 1922), a model 99 portable (circa Sept 23, 1930), a model 99-10 commercial (circa Jan. 29, 1931), model 15 console (circa Sept 5, 1935) and a model 221-1 featherweight (circa April 20, 1948).
These are just the older ones in my collection and I use them all the time and keep them in great working order. They are in fairly good cosmetic condition.
I would like to use your great suggestions to do some "touch ups" on all of them.
If alive, my grandmother, oldest aunt (Adele), Billy's mother (Betty), Mrs. Prodan and the unknown owner of the 101 would probably be very grateful.
I am grateful.
Good luck,
David Zane Fleisher
