This made me wonder what happens to old typewriters now. Do they just get pitched in the dump?
I wonder how many electric typewriters were made and sold in the 70s - 90s that are now just worthless junk? I'm sure that older, manual typewriters have already become "collectible," but will obsolete electrics ever achieve this status?
I got rid of my old electric typewriter two moves ago - back when they were still being accepted by charity. And I'm kind-of sorry I did. It could have become an antique family heirloom.
Or maybe not.

There's just something romantic about a typewriters. I've always wanted an old Royal like my grandfather had. But I guess those big old electric ones, like I used at work in the '70s, aren't quite so charming.
