Description:
Got this 197X Underwood 315 in February 2021. It is essentially a re-branded Olivetti Dora from after the Underwood/Olivetti merger. Manufactured in Spain, and all sorts of plastic! Took it apart and gave it a thorough cleaning inside and out. Very lightweight, but surprisingly snappy and quiet action.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Underwood 315 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Underwood Serial Number page and the Underwood 315 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
