Description:
1965(?) Sears Scout (Smith Corona Manufacturing)
FB Marketplace $0 (Free with other typewriter)
Fully Working Condition. This is a rebranded SCM Corsair as is common for Sears and a few other companies. This machine works very well though the plastic casing isn't very sturdy and the text alignment is a little off center but it is a functional machine.

Though I have had a love for typewriters since I was a kid (in the 90's) I didn't start collecting in earnest until 2020 (having had 3 typewriters still in my posession and several long gone). Since then, I have become an avid collector, focusing primarily on fully functional manual typewriters. After collecting more than 30, I determined that my favorite Brand overall is Smith Corona and I attempt to hone my collection in that direction. Here's the preservation of one of the best storytellers we've ever known!!

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