Description:
The Smith-Corona Silent Super is one of the finest portable typewriters ever made; it might not be the smallest, the lightest or the prettiest; but this is the ultimate writer’s typewriter — a favourite of Arthur Miller. One of my top ten typewriters, I have three of them from various years.

I salvage, repair, restore, and (occasionally) sell typewriters. Not for profit. Not even for pleasure. Typewriters are a lifelong passion. An obsession.
