Why was this typed on a typewriter?
Created in a type-matrix printer. Probably because the insurance company's deal with the post office was closed in the 1980s, and the letter-making equipment is the same since then.
Not quite the same thing as a dot matrix printer, but thinking about it just made me slightly nostalgic for fanfold paper anyway.
I do miss being able to tear off the perforated pin feed holes
Nice.
I fondly remember ripping off the perforated sides (apparently called tractor feeds).
Because apart from banks and governments, insurance companies have the most technical neglect possible.
From the outside the US is like a Time Machine.
