1964 Smith Corona Galaxie Serial # 6T 375811 1964 Smith Corona Galaxie typewriter, Serial # 6T 375811 Brian Hagermann's 1964 Smith Corona Galaxie typewriter. 2024-12-15 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Brian Hagermann: 1964 Smith Corona Galaxie Serial # 6T 375811 A great typing Galaxie in "Spring Green" from the last year of production, before the Galaxie II was introduced. Despite the new design's increased use of plastics compared to its predecessor, it types just as well as any 5T series I've owned, never skipping a beat. This particular example was originally owned by a woman who occasionally worked as a professional calligrapher. It's suitably equipped with the Script (Artistic) #75 typeface.

I found my first typewriter, a 1949 Smith-Corona Clipper, in a dumpster in 2004. I've been fascinated by typewriters ever since--though it took quite a long time to accept the label "collector". I am mostly interested in typewriters that are linked to a place and/or a person and the research into their own histories is half the fun. Collecting typewriters remains a net-zero hobby for me, meaning I repair and resell to fund further purchases without (in theory) spending my own salary.


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