Pica Typeface (10 cpi)
Classic, yet modern.
Considered by many to be the pinnacle of SCM portables, the 5 series line of Typewriters are fantastic machines. So much so, that Smith Corona kept the base design and improved upon it with each concurrent model. This Sterling is a 6 series, and a very fine one at that.
A true writers machine; the keystrokes are light and easy, the carriage smooth, and the standard pica typeface is wonderfully crisp. This machine will handle anything you throw at it!
Mechanically, it’s very sound. Snappy, quick, and reliable. The sage green paint is in immaculate shape, this was a well cared for Typewriter. The case is the classic SCM metal ones, and does a great job protecting the machine from wear and tear! The Typewriter locks into the bottom of the case with a smart design that incorporates the lid latch. Really durable, really smart design.
This is NOT an "as-is" typewriter.
It has been lovingly cleaned, oiled, serviced, and thoroughly tested to ensure it'll hang with whatever you decide to write with it.
It comes with everything you see in the pictures and more;
A brand spankin' new solid black or bichrome red/black ribbon on vintage Smith Corona metal spools(installed), a reprinted original owners manual, the typewriter, it's durable metal case, an OFFICIAL Nashville Typewriter sticker and hand-typed note from me, the typeface text sample, and even a few sheets of paper to get you started on the path to analog independence and distraction free writing!
FREE shipping in the continental US, estimates available for international buyers upon request.
