Here is a vintage 1949 Smith Corona Skyriter typewriter. This was very early in the production run with the 2Y prefix and the serial number 4456. Seems to be working well with basic functionality. There were no sticking keys or mechanical issues I observed when I tested it. It does come with a new spare ink roll still sealed in the little bag. I would recommend some tuning and cleaning. The most notable issues I see are that the padding is missing off of the little strap handle, just leaving the flexible metal handle. Also the black feet on the bottom of the case seem to have worn away/fallen off. See pics for details.

We have cleaned the machine, oiled the strikers and installed a new ink ribbon. Overall a very nice machine!

This typewriter is known for its sturdy steel construction and classic design. Don’t know much about these machines. Might need service since it hasn’t been used for decades.

I tested each of the keys and they strike normally without sticking. The ribbon is old and needs replacing. The case is good shape.
