Description:
Found this one on Facebook Marketplace.... fell in love with the curves and the art-deco look! The shape of the paper support just makes my heart sing. It's a bit rough to use, has some skipping and a couple of the type slugs need tweaking - will probably bring this one to Tony Casillo for a tune-up at some point.

Started with one typewriter in our small cottage, and ended up with over twenty! Transformed a closet into a gothic "typewriterbrary" and it makes a great centerpiece for the house, and an easy way to access all the typewriters for writing letters, journaling, and whatnot, as well as keeping them dust-free in the betweentimes.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood De Luxe on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood De Luxe By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
