💻 Before there were keyboard warriors, there were… typewriter warriors. 🖨️ Check out these old machines at the #HistoricVillageHerberton and just imagine the stories typed on these! Instead of firing off comments on social media, people once rushed to get their news typed and sent before deadline loomed.
