Period Inventory
Machines stay period-correct forward. A 1932 Remington works for a 1935 newsroom and a 1968 office alike, so availability compounds by era.
Every machine is a working typewriter, not a dressed prop. All are cleaned, tested, and typed before release and arrive with a fresh ribbon. Multiple machines are available for typing pools, newsrooms, and office sets.
Same-week fulfillment available for most requests.
| Period | Day | Week | Add'l week |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1930s–1940s | $200 | $600 | $500 |
| 1950s | $165 | $495 | $400 |
| 1960s | $150 | $450 | $365 |
Rates by period
Theater and student productions: get in touch, we work with local companies on rates that fit their budgets.
Multi-machine packages, period sets, and long-run continuity holds are quoted individually. Rush fulfillment, on-set standby, and delivery beyond 20 miles of Eureka are available at additional cost.
How we work with productions
We invoice on net-30 terms and provide a W-9 on request.
We require a certificate of insurance at least 48 hours before release, naming Analog Pursuit LLC as additional insured on general liability and loss payee on equipment coverage. With a compliant certificate, no security deposit is required.
Machines cannot be aged, distressed, dressed, or modified without prior written approval. Where approved, a restoration fee applies, quoted in advance. We don't rent for destruction. See Event & Production Booking Policies for more details.
