Description:
Got this machine from Texas in October 2025. Machine was serviced and types extremely nicely, still has the original rubber so will have to do that one day but as is it is nice enough I can ignore that for some time. I inked the ribbon myself and love how the color turned out, even if it took a few months to finally get it done.

Started collecting in March 2025. Have had quite a few machines so far, but trying to keep limit to specific machines so I don't have too many. Currently have ~20 but have had another 20 that I rescued, repaired/cleaned and re-homed.
My current collection goal is to own all cubic typefaces, with the limitation that each must be on a different model. Just to keep things interesting so everything has its' own place in the collection. I also have a few others that I just wanted to own, so not everything is cubic.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Hermes 3000 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Hermes Serial Number page and the Hermes 3000 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
