THE BAR-LOCK TYPE-WRITER saves the eyesight.
THE BAR-LOCK TYPE-WRITER prevents writer's cramp.
THE BAR-LOCK TYPE-WRITER prevents round shoulders.
THE BAR-LOCK TYPE-WRITER enables you to keep pace
with your thoughts, the operation requires less mental
effort than the use of a pen, allowing you to concentrate
your mind more fully on the matter you are writing on.

The writing of the BAR-LOCK TYPE-WRITER is equal to a printed proof, and can be used as such for corrections, thus saving large printer's charges which are sufficient in many books to defray the cost of a Bar-Lock.

Supplied for Cash, or on our Hire Purchase System.
