Description:
The Studio 46 is a decent typer, with the added value of a stable feel that you normally find in an actual standard. It's fun to use. This Studio 46 was made in Spain but judging from the non-Spanish keys, it was meant for the Anglo-American market. I know that the Hispano Olivetti Studio 46 has a plastic variant. This one is metal, it appears to be thick aluminum. This one is now in use at WordPlay, Cincinnati.

In a parallel universe, I was once the Senior Vice-President of Design (Typewriter Division) at Ing. C. Olivetti & C.,S.p.A., Ivrea, Italy. In the real universe, I'm a Chicago-based casual collector and hunter of Olivetti typewriters, and related ephemera, publications, and film sightings.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olivetti Studio 46 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olivetti Serial Number page and the Olivetti Studio 46 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
