Description:
Picked this unit up at Goodwill. The attached photos are as received. I am currently in the processes of cleaning and repairing. The escapement and ribbon drive are not operational. I will update photos once repairs are completed. The escapement is my biggest hurdle.

I have been collecting, restoring, and repairing, for a bit over 2 years now. The Majority of my collection is Mid and early century, and my preferred period is developing more to 19th century and early 20th. I am currently seeking more 19th century models to add to the collection.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Corona Standard on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona Standard By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
