Description:
Received this from a family friend along with a 1966 Underwood Touch Master Five, and a 1946 Royal KMM back in late 2020.
Update 09/13/2023: I gave this machine some attention earlier this year and adjusted the touch control as per Phoenix Typewriter’s instructions on YouTube and I have really grown to like the type action. I always have it ready to go.

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 Smith Corona Sterling on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona Sterling By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
