Est. 1893, The American Typewriter Co. was founded by Halbert E. Payne. Headquartered at 265 Broadway, New York City. Seven different models were produced, and the understrike portables were their most popular.
The Earliest Known Densmore 2
One of the highlights of my personal collection is this Densmore No.2. It’s the earliest known example, and one of less than 1,000 produced with the coveted ringed typebar linkages!
