1952 Smith Corona 88 Serial # 7A3241337C11 1952 Smith Corona 88 typewriter, Serial # 7A3241337C11 Uwe Wachtendorf's 1952 Smith Corona 88 typewriter. 2015-08-22 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Uwe Wachtendorf: 1952 Smith Corona 88 Serial # 7A3241337C11 No model marking on this standard, however, given the years during which it was produced, it's a no-frills version of the more popular Smith-Corona Model 88A (Eighty-Eight).

This particular model might be a little tough on the eyes because it's still as filthy as the day I bought it, but this Smith-Corona is none-the-less a nice typewriter to use and I would never hesitate to spend a full day at its keyboard.
