Traditional US QWERTY keyboard layout - 754980
Many spots have chipped paint, and the ribbon doesn't raise on its own; it had to be manually raised for the typeface.

Currently, after some of the more rare typewriters with typefaces.
My typewriting collection began when I inherited an old Monarch No. 3 from an old family member, and that kickstarted everything for me.
Gladly willing to trade typewriters as well. Currently trying to learn how to properly restore and repair typewriters at the moment, but I have done some small-scale things here and there. I am ESPECIALLY after Greek typewriters as well as international keyboard machines (Greek, Cyrillic, Hungarian, Hebrew, and Arabic are my most sought after at the moment)
I go under the name "Swiss" on the TW Discord, Reddit, and eBay for those of you who might recognize my name from one of those sites.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
