Description:
Annida Squire Jacobs, original owner, 2328 46th Avenue, Seattle, WA. Arrived well-used 8/14/2021 from Goodwill Online, Los Angeles, CA. Bottom of case was destroyed (before shipping, during shipping?). We bought a back-up machine just for its case and for its parts. Took to Tom Furrier 9/2023, picked up 5/2024. Looks great! Types great.

Started collecting in March 2021 when an Olympia SM3 caught my eye at a thrift store. By May 2021, I was up to nine. By September 2021, my husband jumped in to the pool with both feet and our collection grew to 37. Phew. By October 2022 we had 64. In 2023 we began attending and hosting events where we can share our collection with the community and other collectors. We've sold or given away about 21. Good times.
