Description:
I posted on Nextdoor.com in my neighborhood in Orange Co., California, that I was looking for typewriters. I met with Ronni Lasky, widow of Gilbert Lasky, who wrote for "The Rifleman" and "Death Valley Days" back in, I think, the '60s. She gave me his Olivetti 32, made in Italy. I already had one, but love it and worried: What will happen if it breaks? Now I have two and am so glad.
