1950 Tower Standard Serial # T110770 E 1950 Tower Standard typewriter, Serial # T110770 E Mark Petersen's 1950 Tower Standard typewriter. 2019-01-06 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Mark Petersen: 1950 Tower Standard Serial # T110770 E This is an odd one, and probably quite rare. Excellent shape but some alignment issues and a missing spring on the touch control lever. Cosmetically it's a gem, even the platen seems brand new.
As far as I know it is at the time of posting unique. Sears Model #593.45820
