Description:
With two Smith Corona Silent in my collection, now arrives the "Silent Super" variant.
The typewriter is complete, the keys are sticky, just a little of TLC will make them move freely.
Beautiful green stripes on the ribbon cover give this one a distinguished look.
You can regulate the touch from soft to hard with a seven stops lever under the ribbon cover. Even the white button on the typewriter`s left (useful to remove the typewriter from its hard transport box) is a beautiful piece of technical design.
