Description:
An Underwood SX for Sears 1956-1959. They affixed a SN tag over the pad where an Underwood SN would normally be. I see the Touch Masters in this gallery have a similar tag.

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to anyone area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Tower Standard on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Tower Serial Number page and the Tower Standard By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
