When I look at these I think of the people that used to use them to connect us with each other. How they sent messages to loved ones. I love how sending messages made it possible to hear from a loved one all the way across the country and how sometimes that news brought great comfort to a mother and father’s hearts. I love this and I don’t want to forget it. I don’t want to forget where we came from or how we got here.
I can text in seconds and the other person might not even answer me, but when someone sent a message over this old telegraph you can bet that someone on the other end was waiting for a word, just waiting to hear!
Oh gosh don’t let us forget how important it is to reach out and touch each other. Let us not forget! I know I won’t!


This is so true M. We need to remember to reach out to loved ones and not put it off to tomorrow or whenever…..You’ve just inspired me with this post and I have the perfect song…Much love M! 😀

I went to college and used a smaller version of this kind of ancient typewriter. We had no internet and had to find and use things called books. This was 1967.

We have a similar old typewriter, in better condition, and it works. It has a set of key covers, so my daughter covered the keys and used it to teach herself touch typing. Worked really well.

I remember I had this old word processor and use to drive me nuts. I am grateful for Microsoft Word because my typing never would have survived with a page full of white-out.
