That typewriter is older than mine :

You need an upgrade already.

I knew this digital thingy was just a fad . . .

Damn- I was 7 minutes to late

Ahhh… too bad I was a minute late :-P

YAY !

And I was completely wrong….but found some things on the bubble i hadn’t seen before! lol

I remember those things too!

How Reliable!! Back to the future, great !!!!
Love the picture, Ed looks like a gifted musician, making love to the keys, such talent !!!
Thanks for the fun

Sorry, and that was with a very honourable mention to James who came in second but almost won because he made me a little scared!

LOL

thanks for the laugh, luv your wit! :)

And thanks to everyone for your wonderful bubblemails. I will respond it quick order. But loving seeing the images coming in.

Brilliant – I must get one of those!!

“Ed looks like a gifted musician, making love to the keys”

Yes, thanks Del, that’s exactly what is going on.
This is my 1930s Imperial, for those that care. And it works just fine, I now use it for all communications.

Oh and it’s absurdly heavy.

Those ribbons can be tricky to install as I remember-But-they make great art if you get your hands all over them and then find some clean paper…....

Hahahahaaaa Grant!!

LOL! you guys are so funny.

I love this. I still have an electric typewriter in the closet. It still works. This is fantastic…..wonder what he will come up with as a new update on his (modern) equipment. One thing tho….he will not have to worry about the internet going down or the expensive ink…...those ole ribbons lasted forever…..!

P.S. i am not sure what he is using as his Monitor…..! No mouse either.

This is too funny, ha ha.

My high school had this style in typing class…. tis true… 1956-58

if your not using it, (typewriter)l have a great idea for a photo shoot and my little model in my hat my hat

I learned to type on one of these…:) ha ha…feeling my age of 19..:) cough lie

Brilliant new technology! But I just found something that is even more cutting-edge – you may already have seen it:
“Announcing the new Built-in Orderly Organized Knowledge device (BOOK). It’s a revolutionary breakthrough in technology: no wires, no electric circuits, no batteries, nothing to be connected or switched on.
It’s so easy to use even a child can operate it. Just lift its cover. Compact and portable, it can be used anywhere - even sitting in an armchair by the fire - yet it is powerful enough to hold as much information as a CD-ROM disk.”

I Think I sold it too him LOL Just kidding ..too funny.

I have one of those in my garage, in a box!

Just in case there was any doubt – Grant is a genius. Did you check out what he wrote in the above image?

I love you Grant

Boy! And I thought Gates, Allen, Jobs and me had a corner on the market!

ha ha ha…...this is funny!

lmao! I was ready to go for it !!!! Damn …. I can’t get the hang of that thing either , CAN’T FIND OUT TO TURN IT ON ! roflmao !!!!
VERY FUNNY !!!!!!!!!

ROTFLMAO
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
oh…. can i stop now?
:P
I see we finally have proof why T Shirt deliveries take so long.

hahahahaha yeah. someone didn’t get enough hugs as a kid.

I think I go outside get some clay and make me a tablet to write on!!!!!!

I used to have a typewriter. And my father was a typewriter mechanic many, many years ago.

rofl XD

Freakin Awesome….. I can only dream of one day having this kind of equipment.

The imagination of HUMANS ,never cease to amaze me….......!!

Yes! I seem to recall trying to see what would happen if I pressed on more than one key at a time one one of these when I was very young. Also remember my backside being quite painful for a few days afterwards… Maybe that’s why I have a fear of technology???

Good one! I used to know someone who typed 120 wpm on one of those… amazing.

LOLOL! that was funny. i had one of those too. man were they noisy!!! LOL grant…perfect for yesterday!!

ha ha retepk …..typewriter mechanic …That must go on a long list of redundant jobs:
the dunny man, gladiator, knight, manual telephone operator,.......... hmmm lots mor eI think

Yeah you press one key and they all come up….....HA HA HA

If typing a letter on an old-fashioned machine will result in double-matted framed prints being available for purchase sooner rather than later, I’m all in favour.

hahahaha… Wallys! If they did Darren I’d get me one of them! Wen

oh that is too funny….does it come with a big, foreboding, scary high school typewriting teacher to force you to learn how to use it??

I’ve gotta get one of those typewriters. I don’t want to stay behind the latest technology.

I don’t believe that these typewriter thingys are free from glitches and downtime

umma..where does the ethernet card go in that thing?? “gasps” lol too funny

And just a few more samples of the amazing bubblemails I have received in the last hour.

that looks like the old Royal my grandpa left to me…that i still have…i only have a computer for about 8 years, so i wrote all my books on that typewriter….boy did my fingers ache at the end of the day….now it is my brain that aches, because of all the puter glitches that I have to fix….

Fantastic! Great system an old friend but a new discovery, very creative!

That’s what I learned to type on in 19?? LOL However we had to look straight ahead at the wall with a keyboard layout. Even if we were tempted to look down at our hands and keyboard, we couldn’t see a thing as the keyboard was covered and over our hands!!!!

Yeah but does it have spell check?
Typical bloody photographers never do think of us writers!
I had one of them I still have it I hated it I still hate it!
I’m stunned you guys have never heard of a pencil!
Did you know when I was at school you had a grey lead till grade 2 then if you were good enough you could use a blue lead till grade 4 then you could have a pen! I started on a Fountain pen! Biros were new and expensive! and wasn’t I feeling so special to have the first Biro at my primary school! I stole my sister’s … she was at high school!
I wrote all my stories by hand … hated making bloody typos! and a typewriter was too big to hide in bed …. not to mention the tell tale sound of slammed keys!
Aaaah the joys of calligraphy! :o)
and tell said typist in the office he has to take up knitting to keep his fingers nimble between writing assignments! – Really! Typists had to knit as part of their training and if they could play piano too that would also help! They could write the costs off on their tax! – wool needles piano & lessons! :o)

nice…...ah…...pic of you ED. The typewriter however? LOL no comment

Who would have thought that that would work. Brilliant.!!

You just made me realize how old I really am… thanks for the memory. I learned to type on one of those standard monsters…

lol! Too funny!

Lol … I can remember at business college when the daisy wheel electric typewriter came out!! If you were one of the faster typists, you got to play with one of the two the school had ….... WOW!!

Aw, does he really believe that his Mum doesn’t love him?? :-(

i just noticd the samples in the email to but I guess I am a little to late!

...Fantastic idea genius at work…. :-)

I learnt on one of those little monsters…I learnt patience from having to pull the keys back into their position when they all got stuck together from trying to type too fast :)

Boy, you people are really fixated on that typewriter!

SORT OF LOOKS LIKE BACK TO THE FUTURE TO ME!!!!!

Remove the ribbon and they are carbon neutral.

What is even more worrying is the blank sheet…...I am sure you are more inspired ususally…tee hee..very very funny.

Hahaha! Where can I get one? :P

this is hillarious! what a wonderful laugh :) hehehe

Ha, I got a good laugh from this. It almost looks like Ed is not sure how to use it…he looks too young, to ever have used one of these. I can remember taking typing classes.

i thought this image was appropraite Pilgrim ..if only i knew how to post it here ?
below is the link anyways ..

http://images-3.redbubble.com/img/clothing/bodycolor:black/size:small/view:main/1061928-1-think-big-t-shirt.jpg

You all just made my day, thank you ROFL

Skyrunner you almost had it right you just needed to add a ! at either end of your url like this

this sounds great!

thanks pilgrim .. just found that out by checking the forums !

ewwww, I learnt to type on one of those things – nasty LOL.

heehee

cool one – black and stylish. these old typewriters can be pricier than a computer nowadays.

I learnt to type on one of these lol

That is what we learned to type on in school. No electric ones then. We had several different brands in our class and were supposed to switch every so often to get experience on the different typewriters.

Of course!

Funny :)

amazing just got beaten at the post, i noticed it lol

Merilyn
I also learnt to type at night school. I remember being very slow, very inaccurate and quite clumsy. But I am glad I did it. Now I completely rely on auto-correct to cover up all my mistakes.

I love your techical “upgrade” – it’s definitely older than me, and it looks even older than the typewriter I learnt to type on at about the age of 10 or 11 years. Unfortunately, it is subject to downtime – when you need new ribbons. I hope you’ve managed to find a good stockist for them – they’re sure to be as rare as hen’s teeth these days!

Typewriter!!!....whats that? (I’m dreaming) ;-]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

looove typewriters.. so cool.

Glad you’ve upgraded to one of them. They never lose files, nothing disappears inside them, they go as fast as you do and you can clean the keys with Scotch in an emergency.

I used to love writing letters as a kid on my mum’s typewriter, now writing poetry & books on my laptop is easier & lighter to lug around! I do miss my typewriter though…Thanks for the laugh lol :D & great techy changes keep em up …. Bev x

I remember my father using it….. You bring me back to childhhod with that photo. Superb.

HAHAHAHAHAHA….Are those things still around!!! Thanks for giving me a laugh first thing this morning….love it!!!

That’s a cool looking machine. How do you install it?

wow now that is an old one….you can actually hurt ones fingers in those lol.

Thank god for technology ! Whoever says “the good old days” hasnt used one of those !!

good one! Everything comes full circle!

I’ve saved a fortune on tip ex!!!!!!!!!

how about a pencil? lol

I’ve got one of those thingys in the attic…and I’ll bet it comes with a MOUSE, too!

Impressive technoligy!

we thought that was very funny….
i didnt.
yes you did, you laughed…
i was coughing.
whatever.

Hi Peter
Let me know via e-mail when you get
RED ANNIE from Wordclay,com
so we can talk more about the contest.
Doc.

I used to have one of those (typewriters, not Ed) and I miss it dearly. But, the computer is slightly more helpful, at times, in organizing. Slightly! And, much easier to find ribbons for! ... I did have some ‘Ed’ overalls, though.

yes the old typing speed gets alot slower on one of these antiques!!!!!!! EXCELLENT & SUCH FUN, thanks for the laugh!!! P

Absolutely ingenious! You made my day. Really. =P

Ive got a more modern one but my kids wont us it

^^* Of course~!

Don’t laugh. I had one of these Underwoods when I worked for a photographer in the mid sixties! The keys would constantly bunch up.

Cheers
Sheila

Which way to the time warp? I want mine!

this was funny and a lot of fun reading all the comments!!

Classic Quick Patent it before Bill Gates gets his Microsoft Fingers all over it

haha – Cant believe I missed this – so funny, and so true.

Love the hide and seek, find the item challenge – could you make that a regular thing, hiding little things around on specific pages – maybe in artist main profile pages or something – if nothing else it will generate redbubblers to places they may not have been before.

Very Good! We can’t forget where we’ve come from. We’re so
spoiled. Thanks for the reminder.

Live and learn they say. Thanks for taking such good care of us.

I reckon this is the one I used until someone gave me an apple!

I hope you can help me or pass this on to someone that can help. Until a few days ago I could see everyones entiries. Now all I can see is a red “x” where a picture should be. Do you know what happened or what I can do so that I can see pictures again?

Thanks
