Description:
I cleaned this typewriter for a local community arts space.
I repaired a broken clevis linkage with a thin piece of metal and duct tape and re-attached it to the typebar. The typewriter gets a lot of use in classes, camps and events, so we'll see how the repair holds.
Serial number is stamped next to ribbon spool on right side of the typewriter.

I'm a novice collector with a very small collection of mostly nonfunctional typewriters. I enjoy tinkering and repairs, so I am slowly but surely putting these typewriters back into service.
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.
