196X Smith Corona Galaxie Deluxe 12 Serial # 6MLB - 184224 196X Smith Corona Galaxie Deluxe 12 typewriter, Serial # 6MLB - 184224 Geoff Flash's 196X Smith Corona Galaxie Deluxe 12 typewriter. 2020-07-29 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Geoff Flash: 196X Smith Corona Galaxie Deluxe 12 Serial # 6MLB - 184224 #142

Not sure how my type sample has a "1980" date when it should be 196X.
Got it with the wrong ribbon installed. It should type better once I sort the ribbon,

"I was born in a crossfire hurricane"...
A professor in college gave me the gift and appreciation of the letter form.
Typewriters are just little "print shops" for me.
I have an MFA in 3D Digital Sculpture.
I no longer mold young minds, by teaching art to high school students, everyday is a safari now...
In my spare time I own and operate an equal opportunity rescue shelter for all makes and models of typewriters that have been abandoned in the bottoms of closets.
No matter how many typewriters I am fortunate to be able to collect, my collection will not be as nice as Herman's...
