Antique typewriters on display<br />
› An exhibit of manual typewriters from the first half of the 20th century will<br />
be on display at Greenfield Hall (home of the Historical Society) thru Mon Sep<br />
30.<br />
“Typewriter Tidbits” features four American and three German machines.<br />
One of the German typewriters has keys for both German and French<br />
punctuation. A small Corona #3 folds up to fit in its box; the Iron Butterfly, by<br />
Oliver (a Chicago-based manufacturer), weighs 34 pounds.<br />
Information panels describe the typewriters’ timeline, parts of these manual<br />
machines, pictures of early prototypes, and the origin of the QWERTY key<br />
system.<br />
Greenfield Hall is open Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 1 to 4 pm. Other<br />
hours are by appointment. (Closed in August.) For additional information,<br />
contact the Historical Society at 856-429-7375 or info@haddonfieldhistory.org.
