Very early typewriter, with an illustration...



Item # 646409

December 06, 1856

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, New York, Dec. 6, 1856  An inside page has a fascinating article and illustration of: "Cooper's Hand Printing Machine" with a descriptive article headed: "Hand Printing Machine". The "Virtual Antique Typewriter Museum" notes that this is a unique piece; only one example of this machine is known to exist. This may well be the earliest print of a typewriter to appear in any publication, and as such would be a cornerstone piece for any typewriter collection.
Eight pages, very nice, clean condition.
