Description:
This is the machine I used for NaNoWriMo. I wanted to be part of the Typewriter Brigade but couldn't afford to buy a machine. This was free on one of the local classified ads sites. You can type all day on this. It's easy to work on too. You may have other machines but it will wait for you patiently. Time means nothing to the Silent Super. It's hard to go wrong with one.

Retired from tech support and finally able to focus on analog again. I was involved for awhile with the Typosphere in the early 2000s. Still have my Smith Coronas. Completed NaNoWriMo in 2006 on a Smith Corona Silent Super as part of the Typewriter Brigade.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Corona Silent Super on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona Silent Super By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
