  Typewriter

  A British Imperial 55 model typewriter key set featuring the Greek alphabet. This set of keys can be swapped in and out of a typewriter frame, allowing the user to change languages. This typewriter is believed to have been used by Miss Marion Steven, who began lecturing in the Department in 1944, when the University was known as Canterbury University College. Before computers were widely available, typewriters were used for daily administration work and typing up exercises for students.
