Smith 5 typewriter. 2026-04-26 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Jacob Peacock: 1912 L.C. Smith 5 Serial # 180912-5 This machine needs the escapement degreased, it keeps jamming. The carriage return lever is broken off so it needs to be replaced. It is mounted on a board that seems to be from a typewriter desk. The typeface is PICA (labeled 1). The serial number has a dash but no 5 next to it. The decals on the front show that it is a number 5.
