Does anyone have access to an old typewriting manual with the
France-French keyboard layout that they can scan for me?


Cheryl,

Just an FYI ... I have forwarded your request to my sisters (one with
friends in France and one with relatives in French Polynesia).  I
assume that even if they get an answer, it'll be a while.

My husband did the following Google search:
"IBM selectric key french"
and got a couple of hits (but maybe no layouts).  I'm not sure that an
IBM Selectric would have the same keyboard layout as a regular French
typewriter.  But one the of the hits did mention a French letter ball
for the Selectric!  An interesting, if unrelated, thought!

Now why didn't I remember Selectrics -- oh. Yes. I hated 'em. (g) Thanks, I'll have a look-see at one I know.
