Summary[edit]

Description
English: 1915 Oliver Typewriter Model Number 9, Tallahassee Automobile Museum, Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida

The general design of Oliver typewriters remained mostly unchanged throughout the company's history. The Oliver's are "down strike" typewriters, meaning the typebars strike the platen (also known as the roller) from above, rather than from below ("up strike") or from the front ("front strike").
Unlike the "up strike" method, which prints text out of sight on the underside of the platen, the "down strike" is a "visible print" design, meaning the full page is visible to the typist as the text is being entered.

The relatively greater striking power of the "down strike" design led Oliver's to be preferred for specialty uses such as stencil cutting or "manifolding"
