About
At an antique shop in San Diego's Ocean Beach.
In my quest to add more vintage typwriters to my portfolio, I stumbled on to a register of a different kind.
This register appeared untouched since it was closed in 1972.
With full cooperation from the store, I started shooting. The lighting was all ambient from the window that was about 40 feet behind me. I braced the camera on a fat chair back, and stood on the leg supports.. for my poor-man's tripod.
I did find many typewriters to shoot, but this, for some odd reason, stood out to me. It's not until tonight, when I went back to look at these images from a few weeks ago, and I felt the same thing again when this shot appeared on the screen... that I wish I had more images of it. It has a very unique personality.
