This super stylish typewriter was selected for the MOMA permanent design collection. It's a product from over 50 years ago and has been stored at home. While I don't think there's much aging, I appreciate your understanding. I'm an amateur, but I've checked its operation, and I don't think there are any problems. I tried typing with it, and all the keys work. The printing is faint due to the ink ribbon's deterioration. Please replace the ink ribbon. You should still be able to find them online. Italian design Made in Spain Released in 1969 Red bucket Portable Typewriter MOMA Olivetti Valentine
