Talk about a pair of Foxy old Bangers,, then your at the right place. The Underwood #5 had been on the market for so many years it was out dated big time by the thirty's, dollars were hard to come by, and Royal was out selling Underwood five to one, now it was time for Underwood to "Fish or cut bait". First thing on the menu was to close up the old open model #5 and make it look more like a typewriter from the thirty's instead of the eighteen hundreds, then add on a few new features like key set tabs from the front, a standard eleven inch writing line, a paper bail rod with rollers to hold down the sheet, the old Mickey Mouse paper fingers of the #5 were a pain to work with.
