Description:
Hard to tell the dates of these machines based on the serial number, so I am going by the other examples I see here on the TWDB. This machine came from an estate sale. While it is in good working order, the case was very moldy and did not survive its cleaning (Olivetti always made the worst cases!). Extremely portable, very accurate and appears to be very durable. I can see why the Lettera 22 is such a popular typewriter!
