Well, keep in mind it was a touch more French--which has "re" in it--and euphamisms like derriere were considered more pleasing than their counterparts. Consider, counter, and derriere all have consecutive "e" and "r" presses (ooh, press, there's another. And "here" or "there!").

It's actually quite easy to obtain a sample article from the "early days" of typewriters, and English wasn't half as lacking in "re" combinations as you think "er" ones may have been. Invoice (for sale on Amazon for almost $1300), letter; 1934, newsprint, etc. Well past the Shakespearian, Edwardian, and Victorian eras, wouldn't you say? And only a mere 30 years before cinematic photography really got rolling. Think about it: the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence are both pre-typewriter era, but most post-print (as in printing press) publications and documents are perfectly readable and understandable to modern English readers (excusing that whole f/s mess), with few exceptions.
