Date introduced: 1969 Design by: Ettore Sottsass & Perry King (0041)

Designed by Italian Ettore Sottsass and Briton Perry King, and launched in
1969, this was probably the most famous of Olivetti's typewriters. Shown here
in its signature bright red it, it was also produced in white, egg yellow, blue
and pea green. It came with a slide-on case that ingeniously fastens to the
back plate of the typewriter with rubber straps. Unfortunately, over time these
would often dry out, crack, and break off. This example still has them intact,
but given it's age, it's not a good idea to rely on them to carry it around!

The body is made largely of shiny ABS plastic, while the case has a heavy
matte texture, and some key structural pieces, such as the ends of the platen,
are of painted metal. The bright orange caps of the ribbon reels perk up the
actual mechanism, something which in other typewriters is typically hidden from
view.

This is THE classic typewriter you see everywhere. It's one of the nicest
typewriters in the world and at a permanent exhibition in the MOMA museum in
New York City.
The whole typewriter has an iconic outlook which is only strengthened by its
color which of course is bright red.
It's great to take with you. The typewriter comes with a bright red case which
is certain to get you some questions while travelling with it.
Both of the rubbers are still in beautiful condition and so it's easy to take
with you.
