19XX Privileg (Olivetti) 350 T Serial # 9291432 19XX Privileg (Olivetti) 350 T typewriter, Serial # 9291432 James Gifford's 19XX Privileg (Olivetti) 350 T typewriter. 2017-06-02 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of James Gifford: 19XX Privileg (Olivetti) 350 T Serial # 9291432 I bought this from a local woman whose mother had typed on it before she passed away. It's in very good shape, though perhaps it needs a good servicing. I was first in line when she posted the ad and though she had many other people in line she patiently waited for a convenient window of time for me to pick it up. It doesn't type remarkably well, at least not at the moment, but it sure as heck looks good. I'm guessing that this is an Olivetti and not a Nakajima by the Quelle International stamp on the back.

Status: Typewriter Hunter
Points: 2325

I am a writer and book editor as well as a collector of typewriters. It started with an Hermes 3000 desktop, which I stupidly sold last year, but now another sits on my desk for typing envelopes with a beautiful sans serif typeface. I type every day on different machines in my collection, which stands at about 60 at the moment. Favourites include my two 3000s, a 1930s Smith-Corona Silent, the Olivetti Studio 44 (red case), and a crinkle, chrome-encircled Royal Quiet Deluxe. I have also been finding very inexpensive Royal 10s of late; I currently own three, two from the 1910s and the other a later model, and another (1931) I sold to a friend at cost for his son, who appreciates vintage things. I am always on the lookout for new and interesting machines and often trade or sell to try new models. Living and working in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.


RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Privileg (Olivetti) 350 T on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Privileg (Olivetti) Serial Number page and the Privileg (Olivetti) 350 T By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
