Description:
A nice Olympia SM-3 in that gorgeous cranberry color. This one was a wreck when I got it: carriage seized solid, drawband unattached, flecks of White Out, no tab key, no case. Granted, I could only fix the first two of those, but now it is a very nice and snappy typer again. Purchased from a former UPenn professor of the history of science in the Mount Airy neighborhood of Philadelphia, PA in August, 2023.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia SM3 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SM3 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
