Abstract: The article features a writing machine that is considered to be the grandparent of the modern typewriter and can be found at the museum of Bucks County Historical Society in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. This mechanical contraption is preserved as a piece of early Americana. The disk bearing the alphabet had to be set by hand each time before the key was punched.
