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.

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…..!

Susan Trigg, 2 months ago

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.”

Mal64, 2 months ago

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???

Deanna Roberts..., 2 months ago

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

Darren Stones, 2 months ago

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.

sweetscent62, 2 months ago

greeneyedlady, 2 months ago

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??

Pal Gyomai, 2 months ago

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

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….

Lam Tran, 2 months ago

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

Pauline Black, 2 months ago

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!!!!

adgray, 2 months ago

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)

C J Lewis, 2 months ago

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 :)

dawndavies, 2 months ago

I learnt to type on one of these lol

Merilyn, 2 months ago

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.

~ HEIDI HORVA..., 2 months ago

Of course!

ShootingSardar, 2 months ago

susan davies, 2 months ago

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

Pilgrim, 2 months ago

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.

clarkey, 2 months ago

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!

MuscularTeeth, 2 months ago

looove typewriters.. so cool.

Estelle O'Brien, 2 months ago

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.

Bevsimages, 2 months ago

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

Arletta, 2 months ago

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.

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.

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
