1953 Oliver Post-War Portable Typewriter - UK English QWERTY - Made in England

Description: 1953 Oliver Post-War Portable #5336328 (The 1953 year of manufacture determination is based on data from the Oliver Typewriter Serial Numbers page at TypewriterDatabase[dot]com.) Keyboard: U.K. English QWERTY w/pound currency symbol and seven fraction symbols Typeface: Pica 2.5 mm (10 cpi) Footprint: About 12 1/2 inches wide by 11 1/2 inches deep by 4 inches tall. (Case: 13" x 12" x 4 1/2".) Color: Black Weight: 12 pounds 14 ounces (with case) This is the nicest Oliver Post-War Portable that I have seen. It has been serviced and could be put to immediate everyday use. Included is a fresh black/red ribbon wound into metal spools. It it types well, with the keys moving smoothly and freely, much better than I expected from this model. It's easy to carry within its case by the case handle. This beautiful typewriter fits nicely just about anywhere a laptop computer does! All-in-all, this is a very nice, fully functional, 71-year-old typewriter. ------ Please note that we are painfully aware of the damage risks entailed when shipping a typewriter. We strive to ensure that your "new" typewriter arrives at your doorstep in the same condition it leaves ours. When packing a typewriter for shipping, we lock the carriage in its centered position, move the margins all the way in to reinforce that position, place padding into the type basket to prevent bouncing keybars, and provide additional padding inside the case to restrict movement. We then wrap padding outside the case, and place it in a snug-fitting cardboard box. Finally, we pack that first box—well padded on all six sides—into a larger, second box. For additional peace of mind, we insure shipments for their full value. Our standard domestic U.S. shipping is via UPS Ground. (Sadly, we have found USPS handling to be subpar for the past several years.) If you have other shipping requirements, feel free to contact us for a quote of the cost. If you have any problem with or question about your purchase, please contact us and give us the opportunity to resolve any issues before opening a case with eBay. We want to make you happy. In the unlikely event that your typewriter is damaged in transit, we will submit any insurance claim forms required. If it arrives with apparent damage to the box it was shipped in, please take pictures of that before you open it. If the typewriter itself arrives with visible damage, please take pictures that clearly show that damage. (With our defensive packing, that should never happen!) We accept returns within 30 days for any reason. If returning a typewriter, please pack it as we did, using the same materials we used to pack it for shipment to you. If the typewriter is not as described, we will fully refund all charges. Otherwise, we will refund the full price you paid, plus any sales taxes paid, but not the original shipping charge.
