Description:
Pica type
US keyboard
Really a beautiful typewriter, despite the decal wear. I bought it as a project in pretty bad shape, then sold it. It was a lot of fun cleaning the very dirty keytops especially, picking the dirt out and finding the perfect white lettering still underneath. I'll just keep waiting patiently for the perfect one...

I started collecting typewriters in 2006, but what started it all was using my mother's Brother Student-Riter XL1 in 2004. The next year I received my grandma's Smith-Corona Silent, which was enough to hold me over for a little while but eventually led to an obsession with manual portable typewriters.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood Champion on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood Champion By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
