Description:
The top of the line for SMC manual typewriters that has the most desirable 1 1/2-line space for a pica typeface. Thrift Shop find. I already have an elite type version. It needed cleaning and some minor adjustments . Great machine and great typer.

Retired. Have been a Photography geek for many years...old school film. Also have been an audiophile and have been collecting vinyl before it became fashionable. Accidently(?) began collecting typewriters in the early1980's...I had four by 2006. After I inherited my mothers Hermes 3000 in 2017 my interest really took off and now I have 28 typewriters in total. The majority of my collection are Smith Corona's largely because they are plentiful, easy to work on and are very good typers.
