We had some really confused young people at the office once. One of them stapled two pieces of paper together back to back because they didn’t know you could print two sided, and another person rolled 8 1/2″ × 11″ pieces of paper (showing smaller building plans) into spindles (with rubber bands) and dropped them in with our full sized building plans. Full sized plans are rolled because they are large, not because they are made of paper….LOL

I still have a box of carbon paper. I wonder how it would sell on eBay.

What the paper is called depends on the device it’s being used in I suppose.

Are we talking tracked printer paper?

Don’t imagine you can get typewriter ribbons anymore, so unless he stocked up, the typewriter should be useless by now.

I remember dealing with carbon paper. I glad that it’s done. I still have an envelope of carbons somewhere.

I didn’t know it used be “typewriter paper,” but that makes sense. Before that— letter paper? Office paper?
