Description:
Underwood 18. This is surprisingly a great metal bodied, low profile, ultra portable typewriter. It is creates by the Italian brand, Antares, which don't have the best reputation for build quality, but I am enjoying this machine.
Update: Added a new paint job.

I'm a software engineer in the Chicagoland area. I've been collecting "vintage" vinyl, computers, mechanical keyboards and typewriters since I was a kid. Born into an analog world, but grew up in a digital one.
My wife is a writer and I enjoy problem solving and puzzles, so naturally fixing I fell in love with fixing and maintaining typewriters and she then gets to enjoy all of these machines!
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood (Antares) 18 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood (Antares) Serial Number page and the Underwood (Antares) 18 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
