Smith 2 typewriter. 2025-10-30 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Richard Polt: 1906 L.C. Smith 2 Serial # 19901-2 This is a nice example of an early L.C. Smith with pinstripes and a decal of prancing horses.

This machine has no automatic ribbon reverse, and several other features that were changed or improved later on. But many aspects of this design endured for decades and decades on L. C. Smith and Smith-Corona standards.
