Carlomaria Grassi ||| The lost world of typewriters...

Mr Gopalakrishna is in no hurry. He
speaks without a break and of everything except his fees. That he services all
possible brands like ... Remingtons, Underwoods, Brothers, name it. That silk
ribbons are better than cotton ribbons. That he is not in it for the money, but
only to use his time well. That without his asking a customer once paid him an
extra fifty rupees for the spools as he felt he had underpaid him at the
original fifty rupees. That if we used a brush and a few drops of kerosene, we
could avoid servicing for a long time (I giggle if he should be revealing that
fact at all, he ignores me and continues with more anecdotes).
