Description:
I was fortunate enough to find this in a secondhand shop in Lodi, CA. Actually, my husband found it. I didn't think I was interested when I saw the case, because it looked like the other SCM typewriters I already have enough of, but then I saw SEARS on the front above the lock, and thought, "Hey... let's see what we've got here... That case opened, and I saw this beautiful, black, white, red, and cream beauty staring at me. I tried it out and WOW! It was amazingly pleasant to type on. The feel, and the sound... aaahhh love at first type!

I'm Crystal. I am a newspaper-published writer, Novelist-in-progress, blogger, former Behavior Specialist, and an Ordained Minister. I absolutely love typewriters, and am growing a small collection. I have raised five sons to adulthood, and yet, I can't keep potted plants alive more than a month. My husband and I spend way too much time together, but that's okay.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Sears President 12 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Sears Serial Number page and the Sears President 12 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
