Talk:Smith Corona

Untitled
There is a NYTimes article about a second bankruptcy filing in 2000: http://www.nytimes.com/2000/05/24/business/new-bankruptcy-filing-by-smith-corona.html?pagewanted=1. There are several articles about having their assets purchased by Carolina Wholesale, e.g., http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Smith+Corona+Announces+Asset+Purchase+Agreement+With+Carolina+...-a062262407 One oddity also that the articles claim Smith Corona was delisted from the NASDAQ (as SCCO), a current search yields a Smith Corona Corporation as symbol SITM. Not sure how to integrate this into the history. nh (talk) 20:27, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

M-209-* cryptography machines
Smith Corona manufactured Hagelin cryptographic machines in Syracuse, first under the Hagelin brand and then under Smith & Corona during World War 2. Will find out dates of manufacture and what models were manufactured there. Only needs a short note and a ref to the machine's page at M-209. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hfinger (talk • contribs) 05:01, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

Area served
I have come across Smith Corona typewriters here in England. The instance I remember most is of somebody I was at secondary school with (early-mid 90s) having one. It was an electronic model with a screen and a disk drive - I suppose the kind of thing that might have been called a word processor once upon a time. Was this an import, or does this mean the company used to trade outside the US but no longer does so? — Smjg (talk) 18:56, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Metallurgy spinoff
"SCM Metal Products, Inc.", was owned by OM Group, Inc., Cleveland, OH until 2003 when it was acquired by Höganäs AB and merged with its "Coldstream Division" (formerly the metal powder manufacturer "Coldstream SA" of Ath, Belgium).
