Odd request really but I'm looking for an English typewriter. Does anyone know of any places selling them or anyone who might have one for sale?!

Thanks in advance.

I think i remember the last typewriter built became obsolete last year..gone the same way as kodak and all other old technology,

Bangkok antique shop? Good luck.

Chatuchak market antique shops perhaps

Trty your local Thai Pawn shop - seriously.

Some time ago I needed a Thai Typewriter (to fill in Government Forms etc. which were not available online); that's where I found one.

Thanks guys, I'll give them a go. Like trying to find a needle in a haystack though I think!

In a few more years they'll probably all be crushed.

Why? They're nice little items.

Any luck? I'm a newbie to Thailand living, and when budding author daughter started talking "all I want for Christmas is a typewriter", I felt that sinking, oh no, how on earth.... feeling. I couldn't believe there was a thread on the forum with someone else who had looked. I hope you found one! If you have any leads, they'd be received with gratitude!

Just a thought.

If you are lucky enough to locate one,what about the type ribbon will you be able to replace it.

Good luck with your search

Google tells me.
