197X Smith Corona Corsair Deluxe Serial # 6YC937466 197X Smith Corona Corsair Deluxe typewriter, Serial # 6YC937466 John Maillet's 197X Smith Corona Corsair Deluxe typewriter. 2017-05-04 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of John Maillet: 197X Smith Corona Corsair Deluxe Serial # 6YC937466 I purchased this typewriter on Kijiji without seeing it first and had a friend pick it up for me. For the price of $15 I likely would have bought it anyway but it can really use some work to correct some alignment issues although with firm striking the letters will align more consistently. It is an ultra-portable from the 70's so comparing it to a more durable Smith Corona from earlier generations is a stretch.
