1937 Underwood Universal Serial # F1071113 1937 Underwood Universal typewriter, Serial # F1071113 Craig Bishop's 1937 Underwood Universal typewriter. 2025-06-06 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Craig Bishop: 1937 Underwood Universal Serial # F1071113 I bought this '37 model and a '47 model within a couple days of each other. It's interesting to see the differences pre- and post-WW2. The later model got rid of the green offset keys, the metal-rimmed keys, and modified the typeset a bit (most notable on the numbers). I much prefer the 1937 version.
