Letter from America

Clockwise from left: Broadcasting House [author's own], Alastair Cooke [©BBC], Alastair Cooke [©NBC], Royal QDL [Anabel]

Listen to Alistair Cooke on the assassination of John Lennon

Corrections: Alistair not Alastair (nor Alasdhair). Letter from America was a quarter of an hour, not half.

Magic fingers

Here's another gem that I found in the document wallet of my Halda Portable. The reason for the D-I-Y template is because Halda produced 47 different keyboard variations for its worldwide markets. Which is good news because it turns the template into something a lot more interesting to look at than just aplain old graphic of a keyboard. This is just one the 16 pages in the A5 manual. I'll be sending a reference copy over to http://typewriters.ch when I get the time.
