In 1843, Tracterobe (American) invented a typewriter with symbol keys arranged around a copper bracelet with a central axis. He used his hand to turn to the required word and covered the ink with the symbol to hit the paper.
In 1856, a new typewriter came out with keys arranged in a circle and each time a symbol was typed, the word was typed into a point in the middle. This principle of operation has been used in modern typewriters. The first typewriter entered mass production was created by three Americans: C.Shoilz, S.Soil and C.Glidden in 1873. It has many special characteristics, such as paper placed on a circle. Squid rubber, with reversing winding core for movable ink and scissors.
