Hi I’m Bradley and I have an addiction and I don’t need help! Well, only help finding more keys and maybe another board or few......

Howdy fellow Army musician Bradley,
I’d consider selling this keyboard with at least 1 key per number...$750

Re: Can’t stop now!
In that last picture, what's the story on #55 and #56? Are they Model A keys? Aftermarket for Model T?

Re: Can’t stop now!
Heck no they’re not Model A keys. If you think they are and that I would represent A keys on a T keyboard, then you should have your gall trimmed. I would think they’re aftermarket just due to the shape and absence of Ford script. I removed them and polished so the numbers may be seen...Wasn’t A keys from Briggs & Stratton ?

I don't think I'd refer to this as a support group for his illness.
More like a group of enablers.

Re: Can’t stop now!
Wonder why the repo switches are all made for #55 to fit. Was it a random choice, or is there something special about it?

Re: Can’t stop now!
I can appreciate your obsession. I became infatuated with the beauty and individuality of the keys while working with switches. These treasures have gained such delight and allure as they have aged. It's interesting how objects we have around us can become so fascinating.
I bought a few recently but won't reach your abundance.

In this case I think I need enablers more so than not!

Re: Can’t stop now!
Funny thing about the font used on your key board. It was actually the font used by Dodge Brothers for their logo and other related print matter.George House wrote: ↑Fri Dec 04, 2020 9:02 amHowdy fellow Army musician Bradley,

I did notice that font was pretty Dodge Brothers-like too. Nice collection Bradley!

Re: Can’t stop now!
Wish I could afford a "vintage" key board but since I can't I bought one of the "repros" and collected all the keys necessary to fill it.
