Learned to use it at my first office job as a "Girl Friday" for the Director of Group Marketing at New York Life's home office in Manhatten, NY, quite a few years back! What memories! (Still use White Out, though [is it really spelled without the "h"?]--or rather, Liquid Paper--but not for the same things! Usually use it for handwritten errors these days.) I remember correction tape, though--the kind that had a chalky white coating on one side and had to be manually placed over the error and the error retyped over it to transfer the chalky substance to the paper and thus cover the error, so it could be corrected. Things certainly have changed a lot since then! Thanks for the trip down memory lane! Jeanne The MTST (magnetic tape selectric typewriter)…Don’t remember much about it, except that it was a monster.

I used to work in a building that had been a carbon paper factory. If you leaned on a wall in the warehouse, you'd turn blue. Good one, Erik.
