Full Working Condition. This is one of the most beautiful typewriters I've ever had, finding pre-50's Remingtons to be very ornate and styled, reminding me of luxury vehicles like Cadillacs and Lincolns. One thing I love about this machine is the type feel. It is so obscure to me the way that the keys bounce back when typing, having the least resistance of any machine I've so far used.

Though I have had a love for typewriters since I was a kid (in the 90's) I didn't start collecting in earnest until 2020 (having had 3 typewriters still in my posession and several long gone). Since then, I have become an avid collector, focusing primarily on fully functional manual typewriters. After collecting more than 30, I determined that my favorite Brand overall is Smith Corona and I attempt to hone my collection in that direction. Here's the preservation of one of the best storytellers we've ever known!!
