1933 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 1030760 1933 Smith Corona Standard typewriter, Serial # 1030760 Michael Bartelt's 1933 Smith Corona Standard typewriter. 2021-03-05 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Michael Bartelt: 1933 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 1030760 It’s up for debate (my Lettera 22 might have something to say about it, given she’s in the Museum of Modern Art), but I find this to be the most aesthetically excellent machine in my collection. The body harkens back to facades of pre-War buildings in its subtle architectural undertones. And that BURGUNDY... let these pictures paint the thousand words!

Writers: TS Eliot, Joe DiMaggio
