My vintage typewriter collection has outgrown my home’s desks, bookshelves, and even stacked vintage suitcase “tables.” While some will eventually find their way to other homes, I still need to find a way to showcase my beautiful collection without starting to use my dining table and kitchen counter as displays!
How about literally writing on the wall? With brackets, typewriters become beautiful wall art, yet still retain their functionality for short bursts of upside-down typing, and I especially enjoying viewing them from a different perspective.
