MorrisHoggson & Pettis, New Haven, Connecticut
|
Robert Morris of Kansas City invented the Morris typewriter and it was improved upon and manufactured by Hoggson & Pettis, well-established machinists of the day.
This typewriter, not surprisingly, did not sell well and today is a rare find.
"Economy is the parent of wealth"
"The low price of "The Morris", places it within reach of Postmasters, Physicians, Druggists, Lawyers, Teachers and Merchants, who have any amount of correspondence, or pen work of any kind."
