I say! Typewriter erotica at the Trumbull Art Gallery
It's alright - it's 'art'.
It's also fairly tame; no need to reach for the smelling salts.

Yup, you're right Steve, nothing too risqué there. Reminds me of one of my dream women other than my wife of course, this lady on the Leone tin of Italian jellied fruits. I'm a sucker for a redhead on a giant typewriter...

That's a strange use for a typewriter graphic! By the way, how do you know it's not actually a very tiny woman on a normal typewriter?

Very good point, well made sir. The other tin lids in the series are a lovely lady on a stove-top espresso maker and a Vespa scooter. It may be a Lambretta. All the Italian design icons anyway...

Ah, so there's the connection I guess. A celebration of Italian industrial designs by a company that made jellied fruits.

Just goes to show you can eroticize just about anything, doesn't it? Who said that typewriters had to be all work and no play?

Didn't catch the date right away on the one before that one. Oh well, this is for anyone else passing through like me.
