Description:
A remarkable one from the pen of Maestro Mario Bellini. Not just another "wedge-shaped" electronic typewriter, the PT 506 is a statement in eighties high-tech portable typewriters.
All its commands are understandable, intuitive, and very easy to use.
In just half an hour you'll be getting the best from this typewriter, and will be able to produce written documents whose top notch quality equals those of the typing pros of the time.
Furthermore, believe me, this one is a speed typer (as long as a daisywheel typewriter can be a speed typer), and being not a silent one, its operational noise is not disturbing at all.
It came with its original cardboard box, Operator's Manual, and five Olivetti's daisywheels.
Original 220volts one, you do not need a transformer to use it in Buenos Aires city.
The seller's asking price?... just fifteen bucks! (a steal).
