1958 Olympia SM3 Serial # 1328726 1958 Olympia SM3 typewriter, Serial # 1328726 Mark Blythe's 1958 Olympia SM3 typewriter. 2015-08-06 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Mark Blythe: 1958 Olympia SM3 Serial # 1328726 A beautiful olive green Olympia SM3. It was in very nice condition when I got it, and only needed minor cleaning. It has an unusual Ransmayer & Rodrian font called "Boston" (Ro 83), which is quite similar to the "Senatorial" font that Olympia later offered. Unknown whether this was a special order, a prototype, or an owner upgrade.
