Description:
This rebadged Galaxie-class Smith-Corona bears traits of a couple different models. The keyboard and tab control layout closely resembles the mid-'60s Super-Sterling, but with the replaceable 1/! key, fluted platen knobs, and power spacer found on later Galaxies. The 6S serial number sequence within the proper Smith-Corona lines seems to only be used for Super-Sterlings. My presumption then is that that is the machine upon which the Caravelle is based.
