Description:
Production in Woodstock, Illinois began in 1896 with the Oliver No. 2, which introduced curved side handles. White key tops on an olive green base soon replaced the black key tops on a nickel base as the default finish, but any combination of keys and base could be furnished to order.
This example was sold by the German distributor Monopol-Stolzenberg.
