Found something very cool (well it is to me), to use in my documentary...
While typing some text regarding an Ernie Pyle wireless document from Oran, Algeria, Dec 1942, I was wondering what kind of typewriter Ernie used, as I always try and make things look as authentic as possible in my production. So got on the internet and found Ernie used a Remington Noiseless, and was able to download the font and dump it into my OpenOffice document. Very cool!
Here's an example, which will be used in the documentary.
