Wisconsin-Typewriter-Repair-Filter

Can anyone recommend a typewriter repairman for a Selectric III in Wisconsin? Preferably in the Madison area, but I can head to Milwaukee, or even Chicago, or really anyplace to find a sage of the whippletree.

Best answer: It's a trek, but Milwaukee has Ace Business Machines on the south side, and Teeter-Warsh on the north side; they both definitely repair IBM typewriters.

I know this because my office still uses Selectric IIIs!

Best answer: Is this guy in Janesville still around?

It's a local call for me (almost a walk, if I'd seen this earlier). Their answering machine works -- [phone].
