Well, what do you know? We DO have The Punctuator! This one indicates it was revised in 1977. It doesn't mention the other two wheels in the series, so maybe this is the first one. Its 8.375 inches square, just like The Writer, and is in pretty good shape.

But you have to hand it to him: he could write a good sentence. Comments are closed.
