Triskaidekaphobia!
High Tech in the 1890s!
No matter how much high tech in the world, humanity is still superstitious, witness no 13th floor in this modern building. Triskaidekaphobia means "fear of the number 13," which derives from the Last Supper in the New Testament. The 13th person to arrive was Judas.
Considered the first portable typewriter, George Blickensderfer created this beauty in 1893. (Equipment courtesy of Dorothy Hearn.)
