Sorry to see you leave. I am a member of your typewriter list and a
collector in a small way. Your web site is one of the most interesting
and valuable in any subject on the web, thank you for it. AFAIK, while
printing telegraph methods are very old the first Teletype was based on
an early Underwood machine, so there is some connection. Since Franz
Wagoner is credited with the first front-strike typewriter, that
eventually became the Underwood, perhaps he should be given a place as a
pioneer of the printing telegraph.

In some parallel universe, where I’m not collecting typewriters, I’m sure I’m spending my free time sending and receiving messages over this fascinating network.
