I find it relieving that people were already bad at punctuation 88 years ago.

  ...and that people have BEEN USING CAPITALS and underlining and different colours for as long as they have.

    Underlying was used for emphasis since typewriters can't do italics. I don't know how they did the different ink thing.

      I remember this one, from using a typewriter back about 45 years ago, when I was a kid. You could get a dual-color ink ribbon, and could shift the ribbon up to print in red instead of black. Haven't thought of or seen that for many decades.
