Took typing in ninth grade; learned on a classic IBM Selectric. Mom & Dad gave me a SCM Coronamatic when I finished eighth grade; I still have it. Looking for information and advice to keep it and my two other machines (both SCM; one old L. C. Smith manual and an electric portable) going for the long term.
