Description:
I would have rather listed this as an Optima instead given it was most likely manufactured in Erfurt after the Olympia relocation to Wilhelmshaven. I have previously raised the question of having the Progress and Simplex models included in the Optima serial number list http://typewriterdatabase.com/1949-olympia-progress.6878.typewriter , but given there wasn't a reply to the idea I'll list this Progress under 'Olympia'.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia Progress on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia Progress By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
