Welcome to another undisputed classic from Typewriter History!
This machine hails from circa 1938.
This is another specimen of one of the highest quality vintage typewriters you can get, in my opinion.
Unlike it’s shiny black counterpart, this model boasts a durable matte crinkle finish that really shines. Note that, unlike the later Noiseless Model 7, the ribbon spool covers are metal on this, with elegant chrome handles. (They shifted to plastic on later models). Also, this has the older-style, metal-rimmed keys, which make for a functional conversation piece.
Like its kindred spirit, the Smith Corona Silent, the Noiseless mechanism is not ‘noiseless’ in the literal sense. It is just a little quieter than your average machine. While most machines ‘clack’, which is the sound of the type bar hitting the platen, these machines ‘thump’.
While the weight is about 20 pounds in the case, it is considered a portable (the earlier models were huge desktops, about 50 lbs). So, you can toss it into your car with relative ease, but I wouldn’t hike up a mountain with it.
They vary from fairly loud to fairly quiet.
Usually I list weak links here: on this machine, there are no weak links, in my opinion. Other than: they’re so beautiful, you’ll just want to keep typing all day long, and your fingers might get sore! (I’m guilty of that).
