Description:
This Williams Academy is based on the Williams 2. It was sold after 1904 as a budget typewriter for students who couldn't afford the more expensive Williams 4 or 6.
I bought it four years ago from the late Tilman Elster collection.

Detail of the inner works of the Wlliams. Note the paper basket inside the frame.
I love the design of the Williams so much, that I enlarged this picture and hung it in my living room. :)

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