1954 Underwood Star Serial # D2538353 1954 Underwood Star typewriter, Serial # D2538353 Richard Polt's 1954 Underwood Star typewriter. 2016-09-10 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Richard Polt: 1954 Underwood Star Serial # D2538353 A rather handsome, if basic portable typewriter with no margin release key and no right margin stop (just a bell).

This seems to be a pretty rare model. It's not listed in the database but I am assuming its numbers follow those of most '50s Underwood portables.
