About:
It is Olivetti's first portable typewriter and is also known as the ICO (an acronym for 'Ingegnere Camillo Olivetti' - the founder of Olivetti). It was taken out of production in 1950. By then, 139,706 had been made in black, red, grey and brown - plus a few other colours (such as sky-blue) ordered by special clients. Itโs a fantastic Italian design, often described as the most beautiful typewriter ever made.

I received my yellow Olympia Monica typewriter this week and I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the work of El Granero. The machine was perfectly packed and it arrived in perfect condition after its long trip from Malaga, Spain to Georgia in the US.
The machine looks almost brand new and it works flawlessly, which is amazing considering it is more than 50 years old.
I would definitely buy from El Granero again, and I will highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase a vintage typewriter.
Thank you, Ania and Jacek for the amazing work you do!
