I live in Switzerland and I have a soft spot for Smith Coronas (mainly because they're impossible to find here). There was a Galaxie Deluxe on a Swiss auction site a couple months ago, but the start price was so high that I ended up not bidding (no one else did either). I occasionally wish I'd gotten it anyway, because the seller never relisted it and it had the most perfect QWERTY keyboard (all the typewriters I find here are QWERTZ). Anyway, one of these days I'll take a trip to the States and bring back my very own Smith Corona as a souvenir. I love the font yours has.
P.S. I'm a new typecaster and I added you to my blogroll at: http://missplange.blog.tdg.ch/ Hope that's okay!
