1956 Smith Corona Skyriter Serial # 3Y 37307 1956 Smith Corona Skyriter typewriter, Serial # 3Y 37307 tom hitt's 1956 Smith Corona Skyriter typewriter. 2017-04-13 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of tom hitt: 1956 Smith Corona Skyriter Serial # 3Y 37307 No indication that this is a Skyriter on the machine, but we all know it is. This was given to me by a coworker of my wife. The '2' slug is missing, the 'z' typebar locks up.

Gotta say, I've never met a Skyriter I liked. Ok, they're light, small, and type fairly well- but they seem prone to damage. I've never run across one that is in good condition. BUT- the price was right! ~TH~
