Description:
The Everest 44, preceded by model 42 which was identical but with 42 keys instead of 44, was produced only between 1935 and 1936 but was not considered a good product and was quickly replaced by the model 90. It's a very rare typewriter to find today especially in colored bodywork versions. Very nice the the ribbon spool covers in "shell" shape, often missing.

I have been an Italian typewriter collector for many many years. At that time, I loved very old typewriters from late 1800s to early 1900s. After a break of a few years I returned to collect typewriters but no longer so old, I prefer now the design of the 40's, 50's and 60's. Yes, I am an affectionate collector of Olivetti, of course, but I'm attracted to all the other brands from that period, not just Italian.
