Description:
This one dropped into my lap for free. Uh oh. At what point do I actually become a hunter? :)
It works fine. See type sample. And it came complete with a case, brush set, manuals and even an official Olivetti silica desiccant bag. But overall it feels a little cheesy. I really prefer the gravity of the mid 20th century german typewriters. So I'll almost certainly give it to some interested kid who doesn't know what a typewriter is.

I'm not much of a collector, just registering a couple old typewriters found in charity shops
