Always good to see an article about typewriters pop up in the mainstream press. Especially one that's not about 'obsolete old machines'.
Nice article. Thanks for sharing it. Especially the second page is interesting.
Thank you for the very interesting article. It is always nice to see typewriters in the news. It is amazing how a computer can be obsolete in 3 years and a typewriter is still useful after a century!
A Very Happy New Year to All!
It's reassuring to know that business machine repair places like Anderson's still exist. I hope that the next generation keeps that one going!
A very Happy New Year to you & yours!
