Description:
Bought at The Future Antiques on 8/20/2022. They were happy to see it go. I went to a couple of antique stores this day since I hadn't been in a couple of years (before the pandemic) and this one worked very well and I got it 40% off!
Moved on to Kevin Kittle on 2/23/2024.

I decided that I wanted to find the one typewriter that I remembered my mom using to type my term papers in school. Even though we couldn't find it, I found that I enjoyed typewriters and started a collection. It extended to rescuing the ones in my parents' basement a week before it flooded.
I enjoy making machines work and especially like to use the Smith Premier typewriters.
