I use gloves when changing ribbons on my Smith Premier machines.  Bigger ribbon, more ink.

Rarity depends on the model number.  The models 2 and 4 are the most common.

I would like to get a Smith Premier one with a ribbon still inside.  It would be even better if it was one of the tri-color ribbons.

Shipping standards can be done, but is nerve-wracking.  Last year, I had an Underwood 3, a Smith Premier 3, and a Smith Premier 5 shipped to me.  Thankfully, all arrived safely and intact.  I would rather not have a standard shipped again if I could help it.

Actually, I think I am somewhere around 90, so that's not far off.

I have six of these! Two with elite, one with pica, one with 17 cpi manuscript, and one with elite double gothic.  All except the pica have a paper injector and the pica one has a huge plastic paper table.

and I can't count!

Three with elite.  The rest is correct.

I like Uwe's percentage list.  I just generated one for my collection.  However, as I haven't entered several of the late model wedges, it isn't all-inclusive.

Smith-Corona     20.93%
Olympia     20.93%
Royal     16.28 %
Smith Premier     16.28%
Underwood     8.14%
Remington     8.14%
L.C. Smith     2.33%
Corona     2.33%
Hall (Braille)     1.16%
Fox     1.16%
Hammond     1.16%
Oliver     1.16%
