Three flip panels at the centre house chalkboards on the underside with a chalk discreetly held in place. I love the way it changes the outlook of a simple structure to something more eloquent.

ETAOIN SHRDLU. Top: Etaoin shrdlu appearing in a 1903 publication of The New York Times (third line from the bottom).

ETAOIN SHRDLU

Bottom: A humorous and intentional example of etaoin shrdlu in a 1916 newspaper. It is the approximate order of frequency of the 12 most commonly used letters in the English language.[2] History[edit] The letters on type-casting machine keyboards were arranged by letter frequency, so e-t-a-o-i-n s-h-r-d-l-u were the lowercase keys in the first two vertical columns on the left side of the keyboard. When an operator made a mistake in composing, he would often finish the line by running his finger down the first two rows of the keyboard and then start over. A documentary about the last issue of The New York Times to be composed in the hot-metal printing process (2 July 1978) was titled Farewell, Etaoin Shrdlu.[3] Appearance outside typography[edit] A Linotype machine keyboard. The phrase has gained enough notability to appear outside typography, including: Computing[edit] Literature[edit] Patterns.
