After many years of researching and writing, I am pleased to announce The Oliver Typewriter: The Standard Visible Writer. This compendium takes the reader back in time over 170 years to join Reverend Thomas Oliver on a journey to manufacture the first successful typewriter that lets you see as you type. From an unabridged history of the company, to Oliver office supplies, accessories, keyboard configurations, patents, and manufacturing dates, The Oliver Typewriter: The Standard Visible Writer is the ultimate source of information on every typewriter bearing the Oliver name or design. An extensive gallery of over 600 images includes historical photographs of manufacturing facilities, factory foremen, corporate executives, detailed patent drawings, and modern, full-color images of common and rare Oliver typewriters.
