Despite what some people may think, lots of industries still use typewriters. Even beyond their continued use for professional document production, they’re seeing a rise in recreational popularity once again—much in the same way that vinyl record players re-entered the mainstream. After not seeing much use for a few decades, the typewriter is becoming a go-to for distraction-free writing.
Among the industries and professions that may still use typewriters in one form to another, the most notable are Banks, Accounting firms, Factories and the Government.
