Typewriters didnt have a delete key.
IBM Selectric had a erasure method built in to the Typewriter in 1978, believe me I know!
I had to rent mine, '78 also, new they cost $1400 back then. It was the best ever.
They were great when you made a typo!
White out the last letter, word, or sentence. Genius!
Being able to change Fonts and type size with a new ball in about 30 seconds was revolutionary. I loved IBM.
Then word processing came in, copy - paste turned us all into a one man committee.
