Description:
Ivitsa is a Soviet copy of some kind of electromechanical Olympia. The typewriter is extremely pleasant to work with, but the quality of the production of the drive belts leaves much to be desired - the original belts crumble to dust when you try to turn on any Ivitsa. Because of this, everyone considers these typewriters to be non-repairable and uses them only as a set of multi-purpose spare parts. I decided to fix this mistake, started looking for suitable belts, still found them, and now I have a fully functional Ivitsa) I am proud of myself))))
