195X Hispano-Olivetti Pluma 22 Serial # 116748 195X Hispano-Olivetti Pluma 22 typewriter, Serial # 116748 Javier Vazquez del Olmo's 195X Hispano-Olivetti Pluma 22 typewriter. 2015-06-04 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Javier Vazquez del Olmo: 195X Hispano-Olivetti Pluma 22 Serial # 116748 Another Pluma 22, another livery for a great typewriter.

I received this one with its case, maintenance guide, an original brush and the factory label (see photos). In addition, itĀ“s an early model with round keys instead of the later square ones. I still suspect the Hispano serial numbers can be different from the Italian Olivettis, but if they matched this would be a 1953 typewriter, which pretty much makes sense. A true bargain for 15 euros!

As expected, it works smoothly and lightly. It needs some cleaning, but even now it can give a lot of other portables a run for their money. The Pluma 22 is an outstanding portable, and so far I have it in three different colours.

The first typewriter I saw was my grandpa´s Olivetti Linea 98 at the office. It was just a curio for me. Then I was given a Nakajima, which I didn´t use and my grandfather took it from me because it was easier to handle than the bulky Linea 98. Now I own that typewriter, and I started a little collection in Valladolid, Spain. The Nakajima, which is "my" typewriter only returned home in 2017, almost 20 years later, when he wanted a better typewriter.

A collection that started small grew into something bigger, a nuisace for my family and a great source of satisfaction for me.
