Description:
Meet "Wellwood Beall" - named after the designer of the Boeing Clipper. Oh, the beauty of that Clipper logo - the little sea plane is just so pretty, and we were able to find a model that had the logo completely intact - bonus!! The scrolly script on the keytops is also just divine. Love this little machine.

Started with one typewriter in our small cottage, and ended up with over twenty! Transformed a closet into a gothic "typewriterbrary" and it makes a great centerpiece for the house, and an easy way to access all the typewriters for writing letters, journaling, and whatnot, as well as keeping them dust-free in the betweentimes.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Corona Clipper on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona Clipper By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
