Description:
A friend's grandpa heard that I liked typewriters and recovered this one from a farmer's market. He just called me and said that I could come and pick it up. It is still dirty, despite many cleanings >:(
While it isn't very pretty to look at, it gets the job done! During NaNoWriMo, with my maniacal margin-cutting, I could fit over 500 words per page with this machine on double line space!
UPDATE: (9/3/14) I got this machine on November 13th 2013.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood SX on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood SX By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
