THE NEW MODEL NO.5
L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter Bail-Bearing Printing Process
The L. C. Smith & Bros. Typewriter has the unique distinr
lion of being ball-bearing at every .essentia! operating point. Prow
the instant«the finger tips tap the key tops until the printed life"*
appears complete, upon the paper, each step is ball-bearing.opera-
tion. The effect upi n both machine and operator is marked. The
frictionless bearings closer adjustment* are njade and maintained;
the operation is easier and faster; with the result that wear on the
machine and weariness of the operator are reduced to quantities
almost negligible. The typewriter, on account of its ball-bearing
joints, made with as great care as the jewelled bearings of an ex-
pensive watch, can be operated for years without deterioration in
the quality of its work.
