4 stars for composition Motts!
This style of lamp would look more at home in a living room.
Why is it, whenever you find a typewritter, the keys are jammed?
Wow I would love to have that lamp, its so retro!
the lamp and the typewriter look like they're best friends
This lamp seems out of place.

I would tend to think that someone went to a civilian store and bought their own personal lamp instead of using the government issued lighting that was provided..

Cashed , crashed, and trashed.

Everytime I see a typewriter it feels so strange because I'm in a room filled with them.(yes, we still service typewriters; some were never picked-up by customers [abandoned/forgotten] )
The lamp and typewriter DO look like old friends. Maybe it started like this:

Type: "Hi, I'm a Typewriter."
Lamp: "And I'm a lamp. That's wheelchair back there, he doesn't get out much anymore."
Type: "I'm still usable, if you don't need = or - or 8 and 9. You see, wheelchair decided to try and move which made lamp jump and land on my keys."
Lamp: "My Bad"
Wheelchair: "make sure you tell them I am still useful too as long as you have really good balance, and only need to go straight."
Type: (whispers) "Straighten your shade, no cares if you have 'game' or not."
Lamp: " Is it my turn to use the outlet yet? I mean I know my bulb is burned out but I like to pretend, you know what I mean?"
Type:"Imagination is the key that sets us apart from filing cabinets and crutches."
Lamp:"Oh I get it, the "key" ha ha ha."
Type:"Stop it! That's not funny anymore, fuse for brains!"
Lamp:"What was that? Jump on your keys again?"
Type:"No wait, WAIT! Doh!"
Hehe.. I see that you've given this picture a little more than just one thought.
The Poet Punk strikes again! The peeling walls tell his legends in sharp-edged patchworks of institutional green and Baker's Pink, while the few remaining mice whisper his ramblings to their children, telling them, "Hush! This is the Word of God!"
entertaining Jack!
thats a nicer type writer than the one i found in kings park.

Looks like it was another late night for someone, maybe a homeless writer?
Ah The Lamp! The light in this photo is so strange to me, am not even sure if it is B/W or not! Hues, shade and tints! That open window is good and the tilt of the lampshade, too. Really like this! Best wishes Mr.M.
