I remember as a little girl my mom using her little red typewriter to write her newspaper columns. I used to enjoy playing with it when she’s not home. I still remember the ink ribbon of red and black very well. I stumbled into an old style typing pool set up at a tradeshow in New York yesterday and could not resist engaging my muscle memory with fingers in place ready to strike the metal anchored keys “A, S, D, F, ;, L, K, J.” These are now what we see on fancy keyboards used on computers today. Thanks to that typewriter I can now type pretty fast on a computer keyboard without even looking at the keys!
