I come from southern Germany and have been collecting historical typewriters for 10 years. I'm interested in the antique machines built before 1945. All machines built after 1945 are not used for collecting but for writing


RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Premier 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Premier Serial Number page and the Smith Premier 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
