“Lets you create and revise information right on a screen – before it’s committed to paper.”

Today I’ve got two, nice and ancient Xerox commercials for you to take in. Firstly, we have a funny little spot featuring a political campaign and a photocopier that makes “giant” prints. The second commercial shows off Xerox’s new word processor that actually lets you see the words onscreen before committing them to paper. Can you imagine that?

  1. I worked at Xerox in 1977/78 and remember the word processor was brand new at that time. Worked at 666 5th Avenue with wonderful people. I remember Janet and Shelly and Nae. If anyone of those great ladies remember me (Celeste DeMarino), please contact me. Thanks. celestecataud@optimum.net
