Tag: typewriter revolution

A blue library book charge card with space for the book title at the top and fields for date and issued to below. Typewritten, it reads: Polt, Richard The Typewriter Revolution: A Typist's Companion for the 21st Century Countryman Press, Woodstock, VT, 2015 Under DATE column it reads: 2024-04-29 Under ISSUED TO column it reads Intro, ch1, ch2 At the bottom in small blue type original to the card is the ordering information: BRO DART CAT. No. 23-115 PRINTED IN USA

Some how it felt sacrilegious to post it to Goodreads.com and not to type my status update for Richard Polt’s poetic paean to typewriters.
