Description:
I cleaned this typewriter for a friend of a friend.
The typewriter came with a Danish language instruction manual that refers to the machine as an “Olivetti De Luxeâ€.
Where â€Studio 42†is usually stamped on the front panel, it says: "Karl Randrup - eneforhandler for Danmark (Karl Randrup - exclusive distributor for Denmark)"
The typewriter has a Danish keyboard.
The serial number stamped on a rail on the underside of the machine

I'm a novice collector with a very small collection of mostly nonfunctional typewriters. I enjoy tinkering and repairs, so I am slowly but surely putting these typewriters back into service.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olivetti Studio 42 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olivetti Serial Number page and the Olivetti Studio 42 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
