Was it worth the cost... Well,According to the passage,  From 1890 to 1901 in Syracuse New York there were many factories that were in progress and people forced pollution by putting smoke in the air. Smoke is a very bad thing for anyone and everything in the world. Smoke can put an effect on people like when people smoke the smoke goes to their lungs and many horrible things can happen I highly recommend you do not make that decision.  According to the text, To sell their new writer they had to promote people to buy the typewriter by making ads for typewriters and put the promotions on newspaper back then.  This passage was very much so bias in favor and I think that No it wasn’t worth the price.  The typewriter was a resource for people to get in touch with each other.  In my opinion I think that the typewriter was a good source but I also think that if the typewriter was really worth the cost than I think that people would’ve used it more often for example, Many people use Iphones now a days many times a day and back then I think that the typewriter could’ve used more popularity by the item.  Other than that I think the typewriter was a great resource.
