Description:
Picked up from a garage sale in May 2024 as a basic typewriter for my 5 year old son who has a blooming interest in them. Missing the cover that goes over the ribbon, and the case doesn't have the button over the latch.

I am a computer systems engineer and author living in the San Francisco Bay Area. I began collecting typewriters in 2021 when I bought a 1938 L C Smith & Corona Super Speed at a garage sale and then took it to a local shop to be refurbished. I have a knack for the mechanical, so I transitioned to doing some repairs on my own.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Montgomery Ward Signature 500 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Montgomery Ward Serial Number page and the Montgomery Ward Signature 500 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
