This illustration shows the type-bar of the Kanzler
machine (see page 232). The four types are mounted on
the front of the bar, very similarly to those of the Empire
or Ford, and the depression of the key first causes the
typeblock end of the bar to rise to the proper level, according
to the character required, and then drives the bar home
to the platen. In many respects, the action is like that
of a typewheel machine. The impression formed on our
mind was that, when thoroughly learned, the machine
could be operated at considerable speed, but we saw nothing
in the machine to justify its somewhat heavy price.
