Description:
This was found by a coworker of my father's at a tag/estate sale in New York or New Jersey. Despite being filled with some leaves, it works really well.
One interesting note is that it has "April 6 1954," printed on the inside of the front cover despite it being from 1946. Perhaps a date when it was overhauled?
Left the collection on 3/30/19

I started collecting typewriters several years ago and it started with a late 1960s Smith-Corona Sterling portable that I got as a gift.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood S on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood S By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
