DEREGISTRATION OF SHARES AND PARTICIPATION INTERESTS
On November 27, 1989, Smith Corona Corporation (the
"Company") filed Registration Statement No. 33-31953 (the
"Registration Statement") which registered 185,000 shares of
Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, (the "Shares") for
issuance under the Smith Corona Corporation Retirement Savings
and Investment Plan, the SCM Office Supplies Inc. Retirement
Savings and Investment Plan and the Histacount Corporation
Retirement Savings and Investment Plan (collectively, the
"Plans") and participation interests in the Plans in the amount
of $9,600,000. Effective January 1, 1992 the SCM Office Supplies
Inc. Retirement Savings and Investment Plan was merged into the
Smith Corona Corporation Retirement Savings and Investment Plan.
This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration
Statement is being filed solely to deregister the interests in
the Plans and any Shares covered by the Registration Statement
which remain unsold. The Plans no longer provide for investments
in Company Shares.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, the Company has duly caused this Post-Effective Amendment
No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be signed on
its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the
City of New Canaan, State of Connecticut, on February 22, 1996.
