I have farmland abstracts in N.Dak with entries from 1907 fwd, and 1907 N.Dak is probably similar tech avail to 1961 Kenya.

The Font and typewritten abstract updates (purch, sale, mortgages, foreclosures etc) are very consistent done on the parchment paper of the time.

Thanks for the info. The typewritten characters should have darker and lighter portions within characters and from character to character and line to line. The printed characters should be much more consistent as this document shows. I am concerned that these look a little too consistent. But a high quality printing job was quite possible in that time and place.
