Famous Authors And Their Typewriters

 When I was teaching in Japan, I taught kids class that used a textbook from the early 90's that had picture cards showing a secretary (a woman) using a typewriter. When I asked the 8 and 9 year olds what this was (pointing to the typewriter) they gave me blank stares until one boy said "Computer?"
I explained what a typewriter was - you fed paper into the top and it printed the letters directly onto the paper and if you made a mistake you had to white it out - and they all looked at me as I were mad.
