Description:
Purchased from Blue & Koepsell, Inc. (est. 1932) during their liquidation sale. The owner said he used to sell these machines and attested to their quality, especially compared to the ink cartridge version. I haven't been able to find another Citation Correct anywhere online, but the "Citation Correct" name badge was apparently around as early as 1975 according to the "1975 Smith-Corona Model Prefix Guide" PDF on the Typewriter Database. Likely manufactured somewhere in the mid 1970s to early 1980s.
