1921 Smith Premier 10-B Serial # SP10495 1921 Smith Premier 10-B typewriter, Serial # SP10495 Antti Viherlaakso's 1921 Smith Premier 10-B typewriter. 2023-04-14 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Antti Viherlaakso: 1921 Smith Premier 10-B Serial # SP10495 Exterior is metal. Works with double-colored ribbons, has a complicated four-button tab system and takes A3 paper. Interestingly enough, the placement of the ö and q keys on the bottom row is switched as opposed to the top row and usual QWERTY system. The platen is somewhat dry, so the typeface specimen is not as good as it could be.

Machine dimensions:
- 40,0 cm / 15.75 in wide
- 38,2 cm / 15.04 in long
- 28,8 cm / 11.34 in tall
