That makes perfect sense about old habits dying hard.
My next question would be this:
Are there old typewriters that have a 1 similar to that used in the 10th of April.
Most of the older #1s that I’ve seen have the flat line at the bottom. The 1 used in the 10th has the curve at the top but is missing the entire line at the bottom.
Did that make sense? Sorry - I’ve been reading these threads since Sunday morning and I’m starting to be quite inarticulate.
Yes. I have no idea what the "1" on the "real" typewriter typeface looks like.
Somebody will chip in here (If they haven't already)....
