This beautiful Olivetti portable was manufactured in Glasgow for the UK market in 1962. This very popular model was awarded the Compasso d'oro prize in 1954 and in 1959 the Illinois Institute of Technology chose the Lettera 22 as the best design product of the last 100 years. The typewriter has been fully serviced with a new ribbon fitted and is in excellent condition. It writes beautifully with a nice light touch to the keys, and an elite typeface giving you 12 characters to the inch. The machine is supplied with the original user manual, original soft cover and original carry case..
Replacement ribbons for this machine are available to order on our website. (Group 4 )
