1 janv. 1874 - 1st Commercial Typewriter

Description:

The typewriter transformed how people wrote and continues to impact how we write today. Replacing laborious handwriting with a faster, standardized method of producing documents, it also increased accessibility for those who cannot write by hand. It became a cornerstone of business, journalism, and literature, and opened new employment opportunities, especially for women, as typists in offices. The typewriter also introduced the QWERTY keyboard layout, which is still the standard for modern computers and smartphones.
