I found this typewriter at my local Value Village after selling a 1946 Smith-Corona Sterling. Although I only paid $12 for it, it came with all of its accessories, including its instruction manual, a brush, a new ribbon in its box, a touch typing card, and a "Holiday Case." It is painted in Seafoam (really celery) green. The previous owner wrote 11-23-57 on the manual--I assume that this is the date that it was sold.
