Hello! I am a typewriter hunter beginning in the year 2013 when I began writing novels. However the typewriters I got were not in working condition so I gave up on using typewriters until this year, 2021, in February. I started with a 1966 Sears Tutor and instantly knew I wanted something more...I am now at 46 working typewriters and growing!
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.
