Description:
An Anteras Parva under the hood. The case falls apart just like an Olivetti though. No case queen this one. Was very dirty, oxidized and has seen some use. The original owner, JJT label, used it in HS.
The first ads appear in 1961, so pre full Olivetti takeover in 63.

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to anyone area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood (Antares) 18 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood (Antares) Serial Number page and the Underwood (Antares) 18 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
