Here is a beautiful, functional, unique addition to your home office.
This repurposed antique typewriter has been modified to work as a USB Keyboard for PC, Mac, or even iPad! It is a completely functioning keyboard. They are the work of Etsy shop owner Jack Zylkin based in Philadelphia USA who claims that he ”…is a reclusive genius with 57 cats!”.
The USB Typewriter can type all letters, numerals, and punctuation marks. It also includes shift, space, and return carriage (which is literally activated by the typewriter’s return carriage!).

This is beautiful – connecting old and new so elegantly… I would love one…
There’s an old one like that with Jeff Bridges and Glenn Close called Jagged Edge (1985). Glenn Close is the lwyear defending her client (Jeff Bridges) who is charged with brutally murdering his rich wife. He used an old-style, defective typewriter to write several anonymous letters. Glenn Close finds the typewriter in the closet of his bedroom after they’ve just slept together. She grabs the typewriter and, hiding it, runs out of the house and into her car. Later, Jeff Bridges is lured to her house and she shoots him multiple times. Pretty good movie!
