1937 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 1C146992 1937 Smith Corona Standard typewriter, Serial # 1C146992 Andy Dale's 1937 Smith Corona Standard typewriter. 2023-04-09 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Andy Dale: 1937 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 1C146992 Bought at a local antique store that was selling it as a non-working decor piece. I figured replacing the draw string would fix it but it turned out to have a broken main spring which I successfully replaced with one from an Olivetti Lettera 22 that I was using for parts.
