No. 49: Typewriter of the Day - Olympia XL 12 Electric

No. 49: TOTD - Olympia XL 12 Electric

'via Blog this'

I only have a few electrics in my collection, I never used them except at the office when I was working and Computers chased them away to storage rooms pretty quickly.  This machine I picked up because it was so cheap,little did I know I couldn't get it running well, it seemed very slow on the carriage return, when I opened the case so it had to have an appointment with Eustac.  He fixed it and I decided to keep it, it was again a time capsule with the operating manual and the warranty card still in the case.  I am going to have to use it more.  Here is a picture for your viewing pleasure.



I tried to find someone who had used this typewriter for their writing but no joy.  If you know of a writer that used this machine let me know please.
