Give a friend a one-of-a-kind holiday gift: a message typed on W.S. Merwin’s typewriter

November 9, 2020 By Sara Tekula

This little machine, which we recently found in W.S. Merwin’s attic, brought so much beauty to the world.

It gives us an idea: we’d like to type up a note for someone you love, and send it off in time for the holidays (and long-awaited new year).
