Description:
This futuristic iTypewriter was meant to be carried in a nylon bag covered in Olivetti emblems.
The serial number is very high, maybe because it's from a sequence used at the Mexican factory.
The machine just needed some light cleaning.
I am guessing that it was made in the late '70s or early '80s.
