Description:
Olivetti Dora for Montgomery Ward. Not sure on the year, as there is not a break out from 74-76, The first newspaper ads appear in 72 and end in 76.
Low interest in ultras meets high interest in department store models. Looks nice with the sales decal peeled off and 2 step polished. No worries, that decal was meant to come off by the ease with which it did. Unlike some!!!

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to anyone area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
