The shift in print density noticeable more near the end and the not quite aligning letters are due to my typing while Mrs. sleeps. If I typed in the closet as Mike Speegle does, I'd awaken her. The only closet in our house large enough to fit into is the one in the bedroom. I tried using less pressure to keep the clacks as quiet as possible.
The parenthetical note should state from about and not for about.
Speaking of which...I think this typewriter will be the first to have its platen recovered and feed roller rebuilt by J.J. Short.

Celebrate today! It is the last matching number day of the century!
