1979 Montgomery Ward Model 101 Serial # 97 F2264 1979 Montgomery Ward Model 101 typewriter, Serial # 97 F2264 James Grooms's 1979 Montgomery Ward Model 101 typewriter. 2026-09-29 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of James Grooms: 1979 Montgomery Ward Model 101 Serial # 97 F2264 My 500th DB addition and a fitting one at that. This SN matches Ted's comments on the other one in the gallery and although there is no digital MW catalog, this makes sense. It does appear in the catalogs 80-83 and is gone from the 84 on issues.

When I get my hands on it, I will look for a frame number like the Omega II.

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 any one area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.



RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Montgomery Ward Model 101 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Montgomery Ward Serial Number page and the Montgomery Ward Model 101 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
