Description:
This thing was gifted to my wife back when she was in high school in the late 80's. I'm including it here for reference only and will continue to fight the urge to take it out back and turn it into swiss cheese with my .38 snubby.

I'm a registered nurse working with the elderly in a long-term care facility, and am of course working on the Great American Novel in the off hours. I recently rediscovered the typewriter after a 20+ year hiatus, and in this world of smartphones and laptops it feels good to be back home again. I write differently on the typewriter than I do on a computer, which is a good thing. I've only acquired 5 so far and am actively fighting the urge to buy "just one more." I live in the beautiful Central / Leatherstocking region of New York State with my wife and our 5 cats.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Corona DX-4000 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona DX-4000 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
