    You have your gallery set as private, nobody can view your pictures.

    Hello, Bsan. Your pictures cannot be seen by anyone but you because they are set to Private (could be the whole album has that setting.) Please change the viewing permission.

    What size is it? I still have my grandfather's old Underwood portable typewriter that he brought with him on horseback while scouting oil wells. I have no idea how old mine is, but when I run across it again, I will measure it - how big is yours and how big is the box? Except for the lettering content, it looks similar to what I remember in mine, folds with the box.

    I do not think this is, in any way, a "corona typewriter" - as it's not a "Smith-Corona" that I can tell. @Bsan1001

    I couldn’t see one. On the back it has patent dates between 1913 and 1917

    Lol I expected the model number to be at least 5 digits.
