1938 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 2C181397 1938 Smith Corona Standard typewriter, Serial # 2C181397 Sean Stevens's 1938 Smith Corona Standard typewriter. 2022-05-09 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Sean Stevens: 1938 Smith Corona Standard Serial # 2C181397 I acquired this 1938 Corona Standard Speedline 2C on May 07, 2022. It is a VERY bare-bones machine; even for a manual typewriter, but I must say that I honestly love that! It has no "tab" feature, for example. Another example of the lack of "creature comforts" is the lack of automatic ribbon-reverse!
