Mistake in date?

    Does anyone know if this should be 1965 instead? Typing looks like it would be from then. I haven't seen this collector's name yet so I wasn't sure.

    Sounds like a good guess. I don't think the typewriter was invented until a much later time. 😃 Even movable type wasn't around until ~1450 (in Europe, anyway). Of course the Chinese probably already had Underwoods by then, they invented movable type back in the 1050s, I think! 8)

    Oh, my goodness, I have to say that occurred to me just after I posted. I hoped I'd skate by with nobody noticing. Drat the luck! 😛
