On this day in typewriter history...



I'd just like to call for a public round of applause in appreciation of Robert Messenger's outstanding contribution to the enrichment of the Typosphere.

Robert's On This Day in Typewriter History series has delivered a wealth of historical, technical and cultural insight over on his blog at oztypewriter.

He's having a break from the history lessons but promises to be back next year!

  2. Robert Messenger's depth of research in typewriters is nothing short of amazing. It must take an incredible amount of work to produce the body of material that he has presented so regularly on his blog, so I understand completely why he's taking a break!
