1951 Olympia 8 Serial # 965339 1951 Olympia 8 typewriter, Serial # 965339 Sergei Viktorovich's 1951 Olympia 8 typewriter. 2016-03-06 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Sergei Viktorovich: 1951 Olympia 8 Serial # 965339 Great Olympia mod.8 in exellent condition with wooden case.

It's Is Awesome!
It's Amazing!
It's Perfect!

It shines, it sparkles, it's "just a space")

I wanted Olympia M8 for a very long time.
But despite the fact that is one of the most common office typewriters in Russia, I can't buy it)
Usually they are very tortured, or have unimaginably huge carriage, or lost spools, or obscenely expensive. And find Olympia with original wooden case - is a miracle.

It cost me about $ 40.
I had to ask a friend to transport it to me from the other end of Moscow. The machine is very heavy - about 20 kilograms with case.

She almost was not in use. The previous owner said it spent the last 30 years in the attic.

This machine has no disadvantages - it is one big and heavy dignity)))
