Description:
I bought this from a Maxsold auction for $11, and I'm so glad I made the drive to buy it. This is one of the last machines made by Olivetti-Underwood in Canada, and it is a fine machine. It types well. I can't seem to fix the ribbon reverse mechanism, but otherwise the machine is in excellent shape.

I have been collecting typewriters all my life, starting with a 1980's Brother Charger 11 (which I no longer have, but have replaced with an identical machine). I have well over 60 typewriters now, with a few rare portables. Some are interesting or odd, but most of mine are common machines.
My wife and I have made a deal, that I can keep buying typewriters if she can keep buying shoes. Fair enough! *shrugs*
