Description:
A dirty 1919 No 5 that had a misaligned carriage, missing feet, sad rollers, and some other issues. It has decals with 1920s patents, so I think it was refurbed at some point. These are the "before" shots.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
