SCM Changeable Type & An easy mystery

This came with my SCM Smith-Corona Galaxie Twelve that I'm going to say is mid to late 70s, because it's definitely newer than my Classic 12 that I gave to my sister, it has newer-style changeable type keys and a couple more parts plastic instead of metal. Still, I prefer it to the Classic 12!


Play the guessing game, I'm making it too easy by providing such a generous swath of the typewriter! I'll be doing the next typecast with it, just got it all cleaned up in the bathtub. So what is it?

I'm done with the non-typecast posts for now, sick of typing in descriptions on my computer. I miss being able to say 'Typed on xxxxx' at the bottom of each post. I miss my coloured paper...

SCM registration punch cards

I'm figuring this is late 1960s. It came with my SCM Classic 12 which was built before the switch to a long tabulator bar on the 12" carriage models.

This is from the early to mid-1970s, off of my SCM Smith-Corona Galaxie XII.

My first non-typecast blog post except for my very first one that is now deleted. A few more scans from these two SCMs are coming up in the future. :)

Noiseless arrivals, Rotations, & Summertimes

Typo: puck is supposed to be pick. -- I could just name my typecasts after
the dates they were typed on but I actually put effort into naming them, haha.
To you who sent me this big envelope: Tell me if you recognise it!
