I am definitely into nostalgia. I learned to type on an old manual typewriter. When I missed a key and my finger slide between them, the metal rims would rip the skin off my fingers. I'm certain the nun's sharpened the rims of the keys.

I actually collect old manual typewriters. I've got 9 that I display from the early 1900's up to about 1940. Then I've got about 6 more portables from the 50s and 60s. I restore them to functioning but it's getting harder and harder to find ribbons.

As for 78s, I love them! I've got an old 1929 cabinet victrola and a large stack of old 78s. Once, when the power went out, our entertainment by candlelight was to listen to the Victrola!
