Truth Revealed



I saw this on Pinterest today and I had to laugh:







Why did I laugh, you ask? Because this saying is true. Here's proof:

Yes, I bought a genuine, 1940s typewriter two years ago and it proudly sits in my office, reminding me of those first heady days when I wrote using my mother's manual typewriter.

I would buy more antique typewriters if I could, but alas, I haven't the money or the space for them, so I shall be content with this one for now.

One thing I will say, though. It is much easier to type on a keyboard than it is a typewriter!

    Using corrector ribbon was no picnic, either!

    My first typewriter was a second-hand Olivetti, just like the ones we used in typing class.
