You may remember me posting a while back about picking up an Olivetti Lettera at a flea market, and then posting about selling it quite recently...
Well, a few weeks ago I was at a garage sale and what did I see with a $2 sticker on it???
Another Olivetti Lettera 32.
Yes, I did buy it. But who, in all honesty, wouldn't have for $2? I missed the one I sold so much, its lovely greenness had been replaced with an empty space, now it's filled again...
Don't judge me :-)

Hahahahaha...just cant pass up a bargain.. I would have done exactly the same...great find lovely x
Fabulous! Don't you just love the way things turn out sometimes? Congratulations on the great deal!
What a bargain! Its very cute.
I am pleasantly reassured to know I'm not the only one with this typewriter fetish! x
And is husband saying, "What? Damn it, Woman, I told ya's to get rid of that!"
I love the typewriter AND THE PRICE! Do you use yours? If so, do you know a handy resource for typewriter ribbon? :)
Destiny, obviously! I'd have done the same :)
The color of this typewriter is absolutely stunning! And the $2 price tag is simply outta this world! Way to go :)
Oh I love it to pieces. It's simply adorable. I'm now on the look out for one for my 10 year old who has been on a writing frenzy lately (you'd die if you saw his spelling) but I don't want to dampen his enthusiasm... If you ever want to sell her let me know otherwise, any hints on a good one to buy? E-bay you reckon? Kindest, Pruxxx P.S. You should have a store, I'd buy everything!! Pruxxx P.S. Inspired by your greens and blues post, I'm so going to create a flotsam in those colours. Px
I think I might have to join the garage sale army on Saturday mornings if it's going to net me finds like this. Well done.
no judgement.. well, only the positive kind. it's fantastic. $2? that's just nuts!
