This is a vintage postcard from my collection that I bought because I loved the image so much and the man looked so kind. It was only later that I was able to find out the story behind it: www.purr-n-fur.org.uk/featuring/ch...

The widespread use of lever buttons to operate things like telegraphs and typewriters meant starting in the 1880s, people began patenting electric push-buttons. These were criticized philosophically for hiding how a device worked but found widespread acceptance anyway
