Description:
1960s Lovely Teal Typewriter in excellent working condition. Equipped with Spanish Keys as shown. A rare international treat on a vintage machine.
Excellent condition with one quirk (like many foreigners, no? :). This machine does not like to use the red color selector switch position. You can use any color ribbon you would like, but you will need to flip the ribbon over to use the bottom half. Simple solution - stick with black. Facil!

A lover of the written word, I was bitten by the typewriter bug at the beginning of 2019 when I embarked on a Joyful Odyssey to track down a vintage Olympia SM 7/8/9, (I didn't know the model number at the time) that my mother had owned and which I had used to type my college applications in the late 1980's. I have acquired quite a number since, and have enjoyed learning about the history, mechanics, and true variety of these machines.
