Description:
Found this Lettera 22 at the local antique mall in very good shape, complete with case, cover, owner's manual, extra ribbon and cleaning kit...and it's cursive! The serial number does not match any on the database, but the manual was printed in 2/63. This machine is from Ivrea. I paid $58 plus tax.

In the beginning was the Tao, and the Tao created one, and the one created two, and two created three, and three created the ten thousand things...and thus it is with typewriter collecting! Hiker, photographer, acupuncturist and more in the Arizona desert.
