A lifelong tinker. Tearing up toys since the 70âs to see how they work!
A not so talented two finger typer, suddenly thrown into the world of touch typing and typewriter repair by my 1954 Smith-Corona Silent-Super affectionately called Cricket.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Sears Chieftain on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Sears Serial Number page and the Sears Chieftain By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
