I knew it was a typewriter, but what make and model would it be? I popped it open and the Smith Corona Silent stared back, ready to be used again. It needed a new ribbon, but everything else is in working order.

Spotted a Royal KMG at a thrift store one day and it became a surprising source of inspiration.
