It served through high school, college, and most of grad school. Now I use it to show students a typewriter (helpful for knowing about the influence of the machine on modern American poetry).Michael Leddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05547732736861224886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343608.post-15650566500315255522013-08-31T10:51:26.100-05:002013-08-31T10:51:26.100-05:00I just had my apartment packed for a mandatory ren...I just had my apartment packed for a mandatory renovation, and perched atop a stack of boxes in the living room is the Royal Sabre manual typewriter that got me through UofC.

I think the owner had an ancient Underwood in the window.Slywyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01424323662407341123noreply@blogger.com
