Here is a Williams typewriter in action. This typewriter has been completely rebuilt i.e. we have fully disassembled it down to the barest it can be, and restored from there. The only part that's not restored is the platen, which we don't do ourselves but will be done later on, as the platen this one has still functions.
The Williams line of typewriters are quite collectible, rare, and well known to many collectors due to their distinct type bar action which uses the so called "grasshopper mechanism." The type bars themselves rest on top of ink pads, lift up, and strike down towards the paper resting on the platen. Due to the distinct type bars this typewriter has, alignment is unfortunately quite difficult for each slugs.
