1923 Oliver 11 Serial # 1006717 1923 Oliver 11 typewriter, Serial # 1006717 Tyler Anderson's 1923 Oliver 11 typewriter. 2015-04-08 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Tyler Anderson: 1923 Oliver 11 Serial # 1006717 Picked this Oliver no. 11 up just yesterday, as craigslist find. More shocking than finding an Oliver 11 in north Idaho was the fact that the individual selling it was a very decent person. My previous encounters make me wary to use craigslist truth be told. Anyway, that all aside...

I figured the database, somehow, didn't have a no. 11 on it yet, so I'd go ahead and get it uploaded before i restore it. Its backlogged behind a corona 3, an underwood 5, two fox portables, and an underwood 3 bank, so it'll be awhile before I upload better pictures and a type-sample.

Serial number of 1,006,717 places it in 1923 amongst the production run of the no. 9s and 10s on the chart.

Pretty decent condition I think, paint has a few issues but is smooth, and I can easily combat the rust as I disassemble it down to individual pieces for cleaning. I must admit to love the simplicity of the Olivers in their engineering.

I miss those side handles though
