STENOTYPE MODEL NO. 3 THE MACHINE WAY IN SHORTHAND MANUFACTURED BY THE STENOTYPE COMPANY INDIANAPOLIS, USA POT. JAN. 3RD 1911 - APR. 1ST 1913 - OTHER PATENTS PENDING The first shorthand machine punched a paper strip and was built in 1830 by Karl Drais, a German inventor.   The first machine was made in 1863 by the Italian Antonio Zucco and was in actual use since 1880 in the Italian Senate.  An American shorthand machine was patented in 1879 by Miles M. Bartholomew.  A French version was created by Marc Grandjean in 1909. The direct ancestor of today's stenotype was created by Ward Stone Ireland about 1913, and the word "stenotype" was applied to his machine and its descendants sometime thereafter.  This is the Model #3.  It has the original paper inside the machine.    Fun item for a court reporter, lawyer or use as a desk accessory.    The original case comes with the machine. There is some wear along the sides and the back of this machine. Please see photos. Ask questions through eBay messaging. I will gladly combine shipping so check out my other items.
