Welcome to the Typewriter Wiki.
..the wiki for old writing machines!.
..featuring 174 pages!

The Typewriter Wiki is run by small group of typewriter enthusiasts. Please note that this is NOT to replace the Typewriter Database or other resources, which offer useful information to researchers and users alike. Rather, this site aims to collect information and make it easily accessible for new and experienced typewriter users alike. This site is created and maintained by the Typewriter Discord server, and if you would like to help out, go there and ask in the #typewriterwiki channel.

Please note that the Typewriter Wiki is still quite new, so please excuse our dust as we complete pages and add more content.

Typewriter List

An alphabetical list of brands and models can be found in the article Category:Typewriter. Each entry in this list is a link to a page containing historical and technical information about that specific typewriter model.

This is by no means a comprehensive list, and is being updated periodically.

Highlights: Machines We Love

Brand Page

Use this page to search for machines based off branding, instead of just the massive list of typewriters thrown at your face.
