No.20 TOTD: Canon Typestar 6
I have a couple of electric typewriters, by that I mean these little battery powered machines. They were the last crossover before the Laptop destroyed the typewriter industry. They could do almost anything but the output they generate leaves a bit to be desired so they didn't make customers that happy. Now they are a problem because like a lot of later typewriters they used cassettes of film ribbon, each was different and all are out of production. This killed these machines. Here is a picture. You can see they were very portable.
