Re: Composition of your typewriter collection
Vertical script is a script that does not slant over to the right, or doesn't slant much. An example here:
I'd love to have one of these!

Re: Composition of your typewriter collection
The skywriters serial is tucked inside the right side of the frame, you'll find it.

Re: Composition of your typewriter collection
Did the Smith-Corona Silents exist prior to 1934? I was wondering since my S/N on that one is before the first one listed on TWDB.

Actually, it's on the outside of the frame under the carriage. 
@colrhogan: What is the serial number on your Silent?
The pronoun I has always been capitalized in the English language for more than 700 years.
