Me, Typing on the Olivetti Valentine

Me, Typing on the Olivetti Valentine

I had a typewriter just like this when I was a kid, and used it to type up a complete (short) novel. I don’t know what happened to it over the years, but I came across it again at the SF MoMA, as a fine example of industrial design. Robin tracked one down and got it for me!

Ettore Sottsass is the designer of the Olivetti Valentine (amongst many other interesting things).
