Vintage Mid Century 1951 Smith Corona Sterling Portable Typewriter With Case

This is a vintage 1951 Smith Corona Sterling manual typewriter, serial #5A331691. These are the typewriters you see reporters banging away on in the old thriller movies. This is a portable model that comes with the original hard box case, it has a metal lock in the bottom that the typewriter clicks into that holds it firmly in place and has a lock on the latch but no key. This works well, has beautiful green lucite keys, has been cleaned and oiled. Has one key that doesn't work, it is the "?" key, probably an easy fix. Case has a bakelite handle and cloth covering that is a bit ragged, very easy to recover if you wish. Case dimensions are 13.5" x 6" x 13.5" and case with typewriter weighs 17 lbs.
