Olivetti - Ettore Sottsass, Perry King - Valentine S Typewriter - Valentine S - Plastic, Steel

Olivetti Valentine S typewriter made in 1970 (serial number 6865166) Olivetti's Valentine was an iconic machine at the time that managed to connect the counter-culture of the sixties with a daily object. The Valentine is included in the permanent exhibitions of a number of major museums in the US, UK, Italy and Australia.
This machine is in excellent condition and has been tested and working. There are some minor signs of wear on the hood that are typical of the earlier Valentine models. (Later models are equipped with two lugs that prevent the hood from being scratched when stored in the suitcase)
