39. Exactly - there are a number of non superscripted ones but one that is
The one that is superscripted is very low conpared to the Aug 18th PDF.

What strikes me most is the line breaks. It was shocking to see everything reproduced exactly as in the PDF as I typed it into Word.

How did it work in a typewriter? I seem to recall the last electric ones - didn't they let you type past the end of a line then erase the upper part and put the word on the next line, like a word processor would do?

Walt's post of the record looks like typewriter, especially the "1".
