Description:
This sea-foam Sterling is so clean. How clean is it? Well the manual, warranty card and key are still sealed in the bag! And get this, there is a carriage bearing sealed in the bag as well. Never has a screwdriver touched it. I took the cover and back panel off and saved the rubber washers, so those two along with the rest are still intact. It was an easy clean and service. One rubber bumper in the case was missing, which allowed the back to get scuffed up.

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 Smith Corona Sterling on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona Sterling By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
