Description:
Beautiful, well built typewriter. The narrow space bar and the small carriage return lever work fine. The keyboard touch is on the heavy side and the carriage suffers from a noticeable bump. Thanks to the cast body this machine feels very solid.
The Lettera 22 offers the feel and features of a regular portable while being smaller and lighter.

I live in The Netherlands.
Most common typewriter brands over here are Triumph/Adler, Olympia, Erika, Olivetti, Remington and Brother.
I collect and restore typewriters to learn about their design and to write with them.
