S-C (Sears) Sales Receipt From 1953...
Interesting sales receipt for a S-C typewriter (sold at Sears) in 1953.
Paper and machine are running this week on Shop Goodwill.
Sale included a 10% discount, a $ 20 down-payment and no carrying-costs.

Machine and its case looks to be in really nice shape...unfortunately the machine lost its back-panel sometime during its service life.

This machine has a 4-series body and never had a back panel. The paper table and carriage return arm are also 4-series. It looks like one of those odd transition S-C's you some times see with the 5-series keys and paint on 4-series body. If that is a serial number on the receipt, that would be weird too, as I don't know what that 4AR prefix would denote. This may have been a 4-series factory rebuild with updated parts, or some sort of Sears specific machine. If I had to, I would guess the former.
