This was an  amazing  creation  using  small  squares  of  compressed
vegetable  matter on which letters were made by means of small carbon
particles from a stylus, giving an effect similar to the  traditional
word-processor  screen. It seemed amazingly portable and I never once
saw him have to change the batteries.
