Up for sale is a nice Olivett-Underwood 21 which was made in Barcelona, Spain sometime in the 1960s. This typewriter is in excellent shape although it has a few old ink fingerprints that I was not able to remove, despite my efforts. This 21 also writes in Senatorial Font (see pictures for type sample); due to that, it is a very unique machine.
The 21 is a rather large, particularly how in it's front-to-back depth. Although this machine is not a true "portable" typewriter due to its size, it is truly an excellent machine to write with. Everything is fully functional right down to the bell, and it even comes with the original user manual. Unfortunately, universal ribbons do not fit this machine, but standard Olivetti ribbons do and can either be acquired by us for you upon request, or easily found and purchased off of Ebay
This typewriter would be an excellent workhorse, especially if you like or have the need for its special Senatorial font.
