Description:
White body, gray keys and gray platen knobs, ribbon selector and touch control. The carriage return lever folds down for storage. It will probably clean up to be a nice little typer. Looks like 11 cpi elite type. Comes with black case. I later learned this machine is likely an SF Deluxe because of it's ribbon selector.

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.
