Nope. Never seen it before in my life. I know nothing about it or who lived there. I'm certain I have never seen any other pictures of or from the property. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

It works. I typed a couple of paragraphs and I think my fingers are going to die.
Niiiice! I learned on something similar, although a few centuries newer. Which is why - when the IBM PC came out - I had to re-train myself to be able to type on the new style, flat, slope-less keyboards. IBM had the best keyboard on the planet in 1981 - the superb Selectric keyboard - instead of using that, they gave us the flat style and keyboards haven't been the same since!1928 Underwood No.5

I'm lucky if I can do 120 LPM (LETTERS per minute) hahaI learned on an Olivetti in high school way back in 1973. Started the year at 23 wpm and finished at 20 wpm. My future wife could do 120. She still can do pretty close to that. My typing sounds like tik, tik, tik. Hers sounds like a long running fart.
That looks like the Jeep that wanted to be a fire fighter. Read that book to my kids.
I love the Alaska building codes.Driving through Alaska and saw this upstairs slider directly to the roof with no balcony.
Does the backspace key count?I'm lucky if I can do 120 LPM (LETTERS per minute) haha
I will say I took typing in high school to meet girls not knowing how important it would be now.I've always been a very fast typist, but the downside of it is that I'm VERY sensitive to keyboards, and the crap that has passed for keyboards since 1981 has been a constant source of irritation. Flat, clicky, various incarnations of "Chicklet", weird layouts, and most especially the relocation of the control key from its time honored location next to "A" down to a completely useless and unergonomic location at the bottom - are among the ills...
I took it as a senior to kill a credit requirement that I didn't need. That's another story.I will say I took typing in high school to meet girls not knowing how important it would be now.
