1937 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 1C51377 1937 Smith Corona Standard typewriter, Serial # 1C51377 Nicholas West's 1937 Smith Corona Standard typewriter. 2023-07-29 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Nicholas West: 1937 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 1C51377 I found this machine standing by itself next to some trash cans in upstate New York. Someone had thrown this gorgeous typewriter away, had thrown it IN THE GARBAGE. I couldn't believe it. I grabbed it and rushed it home. The case was beyond saving, but the machine was just moldy and dusty. After a good cleaning, degreasing and other TLC, it became a spectacular typer and one of my absolute favorites of my machines. A prized possession, I love it to death.
