Description:
A DB first. Not sure what the SN code is telling me. Maybe 1 is the month and 5 is the year. These came out in 1975, so that would fit. They were gone by ca 79.
An Olivetti style wise. Is it as complicated and unreliable under the cover?
With "IBM keyboard" and "selective electric" it gives you an idea what all the compact office electrics are trying to hit.

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 Citizen S4 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Citizen Serial Number page and the Citizen S4 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
