Studying historical Korean metal and wood type at the Gutenberg Museum Library in Mainz. Tickled to find delicate Hanguja 한구자 specimens here! These represent a portion of their Korean type collection, which is partially in storage as the museum has temporarily closed. #koreanmovabletype #금속활자 #목활자

An amazing discovery of Lin Yutang’s prototype for the Chinese typewriter, now at Stanford.
How this long-lost Chinese typewriter from the 1940s changed modern computing
