Description:
I bought this 1937 Corona Junior "flat top" in Brooklawn, New Jersey in May of 2021. Not really much to say about it. It needed a thorough cleaning, but it cleaned-up quite nicely. It is the stripped-down, Depression Era counterpart of the usual Corona flat tops--carriage shift rather than basket shift, no ribbon selector, no backspace, no tabs, and no bell. But it still looks good, and has the unique ribbon-spool rims.

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