Such a beautiful machine. I love my SC unit.
Best of luck with your type-in!
It’s amazing to me that machines like this one still be found in nearly-new condition! I’ve always thought the “racing stripes” on this model were very attractive.
Deserves a promotion to 3-star General!
Count me in on the Round-Up planning committee. Can’t say I’ll be a ton of help, but I’m happy to do what I can.
This typewriter is one of Smith-Corona’s best designs and comes from my favorite era for these machines.
I am looking for a typewriter like this, or a Sterling or Silent or equivalent, in elite type. Might you be interested in doing a trade? I have a 1945 Sterling in pica, in excellent condition.
Please let me know if this is of interest to you!

Just letting people know in case they are trying to replay to Cameron above that he passed on in August of 2018.
Sorry to hear it, but thank you for letting us know.
