Description:
Got this typewriter in almost new condition, save for the keys, which are a little discoloured. Works like a charm, and puts my other Underwood standard to shame with its light, yet snappy action, and relatively light shift-action. This is truly the pinnacle of Underwood's craftsmanship.
Elite typeface, with sans-serif numerals, different from all other typestyles I've seen on Underwoods of this same era.

I collect working and usable typewriters that get, well, used.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood 6 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood 6 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
