Antique Royal typewriter, shot in morning window light.
This is a teaching typewriter; the keys have caps (a few of which are missing), so that
when removed, the student must learn what the keys are and type by touch.
Textures by Shadowhouse and Flypaper, black and white conversion and other adjustments in PS CC.

Gosh Peggy, I must be showing my age too, because I also learnt to type on one of these! What a nostalgic image! Love the capture too, of just half a typewriter! #10983137Peggy Pfister February 23, 2014

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
