Behind every successful event is a great team. Virtual Herman's wouldn't have been a success with out the following nearly 40 individuals who volunteered their time to make February 19h, 2022 happen.
This year I want to showcase the talent of my two tech friends:
Nick McIntyre - Co-Owner of We Make Videos in Nashville, Tenn.
We were able to provide to all 358 attendees real time help and support during the event. With 2X+ the attendees over 2020, the event opening went smoothly. Finally, the recordings are being edited and prepared for you in a timely fashion .. no small feat for volunteers. I love these guys and am thankful for their support of our typewriter obsession!
Event Thanks

Social Media Thanks
Facebook Groups - Advertising/Event Listing
Austin Typewriter Ink - David Torres, Admin
Typerheads - John Monroe, Admin
I also posted on the Pre-1920s Typewriter Colectors and the Group and the Vintage Typewriters and Decent People Groups
I especally want to single out J.P. Huard of the Antique Typewriter Collectors Group for allowing me to market Virtual Herman's as a Group Moderator. With 11,000+ members, it is the perfect spot for a lot of 'eyes on" advertising. Due to the large number of posts, a normal post might get lost within hours. J.P. granted me the ability to feature posts in this group making sure that everyone who visited stayed informed. Thank you J.P.
Sherry Thanks
I want to thank my wife, Sherry Brechbiel, for taking care of me for the month prior to the event ... as I didn't do s**t around the house. I love you.
