16. My father used an Underwood manual typewriter.

He used it to write poetry and his Sunday sermons (he was a Baptist preacher). He could type 45wpm hunt-and-peck, it was amazing watching him. He died in 1987. I don't know what happened to that typewriter, but now, I wish I still had it, as a museum piece, for nostalgic purposes. That typewriter was older than I am.
