Restored typewriters with NEW PLATEN

Typewriters with Newly Fitted Platens

This exclusive collection features restored vintage typewriters that have all been expertly upgraded with a brand new platen. The platen—the rubber roller that feeds the paper—plays a vital role in ensuring clean, even, and reliable typing. On many older machines, the original platen has hardened with age, leading to faint or uneven impressions. By fitting each typewriter with a new platen, we guarantee smoother typing, sharper print quality, and a writing experience that feels as good as new.

Perfect for writers, collectors, and everyday typists, these refurbished manual typewriters combine timeless craftsmanship with modern usability. Each machine has been fully restored and tested by the specialists at Mr & Mrs Vintage Typewriters, trusted experts featured on the BBC’s The Repair Shop with over 5,000 typewriters restored.

✨ Why choose a typewriter with a new platen?

• Clearer, sharper impressions on the page

• Improved typing performance and comfort

• Extended life and durability of your machine

• Ideal for both regular use and display

We offer worldwide shipping, with flexible delivery options: standard, tracked, and express—so whether you’re in the UK, US, or abroad, your typewriter will arrive safely and securely.
