Description

Framed Typewriter & Print Assemblage, 1800s–1920s Parts, Unique Collectables

Vintage mixed-media assemblage by Unique Collectables Company (Hollywood, 1981), featuring authentic 19th–20th century print and typewriter artifacts. Mounted within a walnut-toned frame, the composition includes early ink bottle (1800s), typewriter components (1920s), wood block type (c.1900s), and period advertising ephemera—such as a Smith Typewriter Sales coupon and “Be Irresistible!” mail-order ad from the early 20th century. Each item is original and not reproduced, as verified by the maker’s certificate on verso.

A fascinating curated display of early American print and office history—ideal for collectors of writing instruments, advertising, or typographic memorabilia.


Condition

Good overall condition with visible scuffing to frame and matting. Paper inserts remain legible with age toning consistent with period materials. Glass and internal items stable and intact.


Dimensions

Overall: 19¼" H × 15¼" W × 1" D
