Click, click, clack, click, scrrrrrr, ding. That isn’t the sound of your PC trying to connect to dial up internet circa 1998 — no, this nostalgic noise takes us back just a little bit further to a time of ink-stained fingers and whiteout.
At Portland’s vintage typewriter shop Type Space (2409 SE 49th Ave.), enthusiasts, writers, artists, students, and anyone interested in how things were done before can browse an impressive collection dating from the 1880s to the 1970s.
