Need help dating Underwood Champion
I found this typewriter on eBay. It's in great shape, has a nice case and includes original instructions. It only needed a new ribbon. It's become a favorite, and I would like to know more about it. Any help is appreciated.

The title of this thread reads, "Need help dating an Underwood Champion." All I can tell you is : 1. Be yourself; 2. Make it a lunch on the first date; 3. When you get up to dinner and a movie, make sure she's in by 10:00 PM. Good luck!

I had the same thought, but you got there first! Then I guess "carbon dating" would be when you dropped her and went out with the carbon paper?

Re: Need help dating Underwood Champion
Nice way to welcome a new member to our forum, boys...
typeset, following SoucekFan's instructions will give you the year of manufacture. I'm betting it was made in '46 or '47. It's a nice Champion, congratulations!
