Abstract

Description

The Departments of Chinese and Japanese in the Australian National University use special typewriters like this for some of their work. The machine can be used for either language as the tray of characters is interchangeable. Similar machines are also used for preparing catalogue cards for the oriental studies collection of the university library.
