Subtlety and good engineering. This demonstrates that the Studio 44 could be described as a 'bridge' typewriter. It is perfectly usable as a standard, but it comes with a case and you can carry it, given sufficient lumbar support.

I'm an opportunistic collector and user. Yep, I have a habit, but I'm in control, OK?
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olivetti Studio 44 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olivetti Serial Number page and the Olivetti Studio 44 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
