    Rosalie Miller using what appears to be a music typewriter. I've been unable to identify the model – and there were only a handful c.1918, so perhaps this is not a music typewriter. While there are many sources ... the one I've found more appropriate to music typewriters is from Music Printing History.
  • Art Siegel said:
    Not a music typewriter, "This machine is the Blick Featherweight and is a development of the earlier Model 5 with an aluminium frame. Possibly the lightest portable typewriter ever produced, the Featherweight was marketed as the 'Five Pound Secretary'. " It had a changeable typewheel, too.

    Nicely done Art Siegel!   It's just like you! ;) I love the photograph by César Astudillo! It's so interesting that there were these "featherweight" typewriters early on, and they seemingly just became bigger and heavier through the years. And the similarity between the Blick's rotating type wheel (1910) and IBM Selectric's type balls 50 years later is amazing. (Blick offered 170 different type wheels according to the ad you found!) As an aside, while searching earlier for music typewriters I noted that "type writer" appears to have begun as two words... and followed the usual sequence of becoming hyphenated and then one word -- albeit over a relatively short timeline.

    I think this might be on a ship, not a porch.

    This picture was taken at a hotel in Tampa in June 1898. On the same day as this photo Remington made a pen and ink gouache drawing of Stephen Bonsal ... who is wearing the same clothes in the sketch.

    Likely not a ship as Remington also wrote Tampa on the sketch. I'm thinking it was a hotel porch in Tampa

    This is a great picture. It captures the time period quite effectively. She truly is an inspiration to us all. It's amazing to know that she was the first person who was both deaf and blind to graduate from college. I recently read on Wikipedia that she was an activist as well. I didn't know that she campaigned for women's right to vote.
