1950 Swissa Piccola Serial # 85791 1950 Swissa Piccola typewriter, Serial # 85791 Katy Evans-Bush's 1950 Swissa Piccola typewriter. 2015-10-02 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Katy Evans-Bush: 1950 Swissa Piccola Serial # 85791 This gallery is a work in progress. The machine was bought for £5 and had been in the same family since it was bought. The ribbon vibrator was hanging sideways, out of its slot, and it needed many other repairs too.It's now had the repairs and is a wonderful little typer! I am slowly bringing it back to its real (much lighter than in these pictures) colour, and once it's had a more thorough clean and service I'll update everything. The repairman who did the final fixes said he had never even seen one of these before. Lucky to have it.
