1946 Underwood Noiseless 77 Serial # 1508277 1946 Underwood Noiseless 77 typewriter, Serial # 1508277 Little Typist's 1946 Underwood Noiseless 77 typewriter. 2026-04-04 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Little Typist: 1946 Underwood Noiseless 77 Serial # 1508277 Feels like a true gem, although it needs a lot of work to shine and work again...
Rust is everywhere, every touch makes it creak, so I will take it apart piece by piece and restore it.
Please comment if you notice something bent at the mechanism (the case and right knob tell me it suffered quite a fall).
In my dreams, I hope to get or build a nice case for it.
