1969 Facit 1620 Serial # p621986 1969 Facit 1620 typewriter, Serial # p621986 Mike Green's 1969 Facit 1620 typewriter. 2023-08-15 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Mike Green: 1969 Facit 1620 Serial # p621986 I walked in a small town thrift store and found this Facit 1620 for $8. The arm was off but was in the case with its stripped screw. I found a perfect fit hex- head stainless steel replacement at Ace Hdw. store. Papers in the case indicate this was owned by a Pentecostal minister. Cleaned it up and brought it back to fight the devil again. It's quite a good typer and the carriage traveling in a ball bearing tube is heavenly. Passed on to another collector.
