Brochure from the Peter Weil collection advertising the Rex Visible No. 4. Dated 1918.
One of the advertising angles often employed for "cut rate" typewriters was that wherein the reader is encouraged to buy the typewriter as a medium through which great extra money can be made. "If you don't have a typewriter, you can't do THIS, or THAT" is the basic scheme.
Note that the date of this brochure is 1918, and the Rex Visible No. 4 is fitted with front ribbon selector switch by this date. Above, the typewriter cropped and enlarged. Click here to return. |
