This is a vintage operator's manual for the VARI-TYPER. Contains 80 pages, measures 8" by 5.5". Black and white print, some graphics showing different models and "how-to" stuff. I read the following information about the actual Vari Typer:
The Varityper (also known as the Vari-Typer or VariTyper) was a highly ingenious "word processor" of the pre-digital age. This machine could use over 300 different type styles and write in 55 languages; it could adjust the space between characters, and even produce right-justified copy. Even though the Varityper enjoyed a successful career of about 60 years, you may never have seen one, for the machine was not generally adopted as a standard typewriter. Instead, it found a niche as a "cold typesetting" or "office composing" machine: it was generally used to produce neat, camera-ready copy for offset printing, at a cost much lower than that of conventional printer's methods.
Questions are welcomed, we do combine shipping when possible. This comes from a smoke free and pet free environment.
Paypal is preferred method of payment but US money orders are also accepted. Thanks for looking and good luck!
