1897 Jewett 5 Serial # 11244 1897 Jewett 5 typewriter, Serial # 11244 Mark Schrad's 1897 Jewett 5 typewriter. 2021-01-10 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Mark Schrad: 1897 Jewett 5 Serial # 11244 As a native Iowan, I've always been drawn to the Jewett as the only machine (other than early Olivers) made in the state. I got this rough Jewett 5 from fellow native Iowan Herman Price in 2018. It'll take some time to get it up and running again, but I'm dedicated to doing so.
