June 23rd is National Typewriter Day! This day commemorates when the typewriter was first patented on this day in 1868. The typewriter was patented by American inventor Christopher Latham Sholes. For today, we are sharing a video from the desk of our Museum Director who typed a message using her 1950s apple red Smith-Corona typewriter. #NationalTypewriterDay #typewriter #typing #sachistorymuseum #museum #Sacramento | Sacramento History Museum
