Corona Model portable typewriter 1930

The Corona Model portable typewriter, designed by C. Smith & Corona Typewriters, Inc. in 1930, is a classic example of early 20th-century technology. Its black enamel finish and gold-toned keys give it a stylish and functional aesthetic. The typewriter's compact size and portability made it a popular choice for writers and journalists, who could take their work on the go. This example, now part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection, serves as a reminder of the evolution of writing tools and the enduring power of the written word.
