The Martyrdom of the Typist

Two cartoon elves, Charles and Stone, dance to celebrate their latest bright idea: to tease Lucette, typist by trade. One of the two practical jokers therefore pounces at her, then it’s the turn of his accomplice to pinch the poor woman’s back making her fall…
Full of regrets, our two scoundrels decide to offer their victim a Flambo chair: the essential tool for typists to prevent backache.
Then it’s Odette’s turn, also a typist, to show us the benefits of this seat. Seated on her Flambo the young woman is transformed into a genuine performer and does no less than 888 hits a minute before our dumbstruck eyes! An exploit that must have delighted Frenchman Henri Liber, creator of the Flambo chair. —Europa Film Treasures
