Description:
Definitely a 1949 machine (checked a few age lists), with an 18 inch carriage (17'' writing line, fits 18'' 1/2 paper). Not sure about the model designation though.

Software engineer by day, and typewriter newbie by night.
I got my first typewriter when I was a child, one of the kid's plastic ones, but was not satisfied.
I moved on the first real one, a portable Silver-Reed Silverette S, which I still own today, and use once in a while.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Woodstock 8 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Woodstock Serial Number page and the Woodstock 8 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
