Description:
Another unexpected find. Typewriter is in perfect working condition with very little cosmetic defects indicating it probably has seen little to no use.
This is the first time I've across a label of a distributor in Calcutta, India, Continental Commercial Co. Ltd.
Note: Serial number located at side of rear left part of the machine (if you're facing the machine). Look inside the shell with a flashlight.

I'm a young(er) typewriter nut who doggedly pursued and waited for the day I'd buy a Smith-Corona to write with. The hobby is gradually becoming an obsession with newer members coming in :)
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Corona Skyriter on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona Skyriter By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
