Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to anyone area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Smith Corona Ranger on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Smith Corona Serial Number page and the Smith Corona Ranger By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
