1957 Olivetti Lettera 22 Serial # 688236 1957 Olivetti Lettera 22 typewriter, Serial # 688236 Paul Zagaeski's 1957 Olivetti Lettera 22 typewriter. 2020-04-15 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Paul Zagaeski: 1957 Olivetti Lettera 22 Serial # 688236 Underwood Olivetti Lettera 22 (1957) acquired from Goodwill Feb 2020. Exceptionally dirty and many parts rust-coated. Fortunately all mechanical components were in good condition and the rust came off nicely. Typeface is a Roman 10cpi, very crisp appearance. Typing on this machine is very pleasant. Keys have a springy feel. Really enjoyed discovering the Margin Release button creates a paragraph indentation if held down while returning the carriage.
