Efficient: so she deserves the best


AN efficient typist deserves an electric typewriter. This is not just a queslion of maintaining her "image’’ — the American Air Force did a survey which showed that six days’ manual typing could be done in (Ive days with the same effort from the same typist. With the high cost of


labour today, plus the prob­ lems of finding and keeping staff, providing an efficient "work station" really is good business. Bullock and Bosson (Burn­


ley) Ltd at the moment have (thanks to previous bulk purchases) a small number of Imperial Mark 1 electric typewriters, 14-inch carriage, priced £135 — which is the same price as a manual typewriter. Normally the price is £240. But — like other machines and office furniture — there are several schemes for easy purchase with tax remissions. Says manager Mr Michael
