What a terrific and informative video! I love your presentations.

Here's my Type G, which is the early version like yours. It's one of my very favorite machines.

A virtual pat on the back for you!
Aside from those wonderful early machines, what a nice group of clean brown wax.

Now these are some REAL museum pieces. :shock: Unfortunately my pockets will never be deep enough to afford really early machines like these. :|
