    Wonderfully shot video! The Selectric II was the pinnacle of typing perfection when I was getting my PhD (77-82). I never used a Selectric III, because by 1985 computers had taken over my world. I prefer the old days. Thank you for the memories.

    It's so much fun to see you type and to see the correction in action. ❤
    I set the anti-reflection black cover at an angle that allows me to see both the text just typed and the page coming out.

    I don't think I'll be able to type quite that fast, but I'll definitely enjoy using this machine.

    Great video and the 80's music ftis xxxx fits perfectly. How many typos do you do usually on non correcting typpewriters? Does the speed of the Selectric raises your typo rate?
    One feature I like is the page end warner which works perfectly of you have an eye on it.

    I had never seen the Olde English type, but the script is a sort of classic of course.

    I'm almost certain I've heard the music while on hold...
