I must admit having to look up QWERTY in Wikipedia. Imagine my surprise to find that it is a typewriter keyboard. As luck would have it, I own a vintage Remington portable typewriter!
I had to look it up also...title of my post...God Bless Wikipedia ;)...love the typewriter....my mom has the one my aunt typed all her poetry on...we are hoping my daughter the writer inherits it ;)
My grandfather had an old typewriter similar to this- I wonder whatever happened to it?? Anyway, great pic and how did you get the definition to look like a piece of paper?
That is a beautiful, antique typewriter. Those are hard to find now because everyone buys them to take the keys off for jewelry. That is a great photo. Love the tattered, typed sheet of paper in the typewriter.
I remember smoking cigars, drinking whiskey and banging out late-night deadline stories about government corruption on a Remington back in the old days of journalism, when it was still a business that only the tough survived.
No I don't. I made that crap up to see if I could tap into your sentimental side. We were computers by the time I got into journalism. Thank god.
Love the typewriter!!''

ReplyDeleteWhen I took typing in college I had to revert to two fingers to type fast enough to pass the final test. Been typing with two fingers ever since.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I think that would be a great name for a mystery novel -- QWERTY -- or a spy novel. I love your typewriter. It's beautiful!
