Just a little, light-hearted poster. Please, pardon my amateurish computer skills. If you want a high-res PDF, let me know. If there is enough interest I'll put a link to it.

A Viral Typosphere
Mike Clemens mentioned this idea and I ran with it. If you see a lonely looking typewriter at an antique mall, Goodwill, or thrift store feed one of these pages into the machine. Then, walk away. Inquisitive people will definitely read the page and this might pique their interest in the Typosphere. Fun idea, huh?I do not recommend that you bother people or get into trouble over this. The idea is definitely more surreptitious that a poster, card, or website, but it can be a fun little discovery for the person who buys that typewriter you pass up. Feel free to adapt the format to your aesthetic or regional tastes. I have linked two different versions. One is geared for Arizona, the other is more generic.

Click on World
N.B. There is no image on the bottom half because the page is meant to be fed into a typewriter.

You Should Buy This
I found this underwood on Phoenix Craigslist. It would be wonderful for a budding typewriter collector. $30

Growth
On a similar note, Mike Clemens has started an interesting blog that will eventually become a directory of the Typosphere. The page is located at: http://typosphere.blogspot.com/
