1957 Smith Corona Skyriter Serial # 3Y-196599 1957 Smith Corona Skyriter typewriter, Serial # 3Y-196599 Caius Brindescu's 1957 Smith Corona Skyriter typewriter. 2015-09-08 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Caius Brindescu: 1957 Smith Corona Skyriter Serial # 3Y-196599 I bought this from eBay for $35. The machine is in good condition. After cleaning the type bars and changing the ribbon, it works great! The margin control bars had fallen off, and the screws were moving around the case. I've put that back on, and it seems to fault free.
