It's the Great Typewriter Charlie Brown

Have you carved your jack-o-lantern yet this year?  If not, you might want to copy my young student and collector who carved a typewriter into a pumpkin this year.  This boy has typewriter fever and he has it bad!  You can see him with his Royal P at this post.  He also just told me that he purchased a Remington 5 that I can't wait to see.

Masked up for a semi-gloss clear coat

The Rat-Riter seems to draw the young crowd.
