To my knowledge, only the Series 33, 44 and 64 were ever manufactured in the
desk configuration.
And to my knowledge, only Ken Nutsford and we have the last working Series
33's in the world, although we only use ours as a desk. I too brag that I have
the most expensive executive desk in town (besides, the Formica top is as good
as the day it was delivered, twenty-two years ago).
Ken's 33 is in New Zealand; ours is in New Mexico. Perhaps the secret to long-
life for machinery is to be kept in some place named "new".
