Title: Reading and writing are not lost arts to blinded men
Date Created/Published: 1919.
Summary: Exhibit poster showing military personnel reading Braille and using typewriters.
Notes:
Poster caption: At the Military Hospital for Blinded Men at Baltimore, this soldier is learning to substitute touch for sight in the process of reading. The letters are formed by dots raised in the surface of the paper. The sailor is writing in raised characters by the aid of a simple machine.
Poster caption: A blinded man can learn in a short time to operate, without making mistakes, the regular standard typewriter. He is thus able again to correspond with his mother, wife, sweetheart, or friends.
