Description:
This SM3 was a German eBay find, and as such has a German keyboard layout. On the outside it's in very nice shape, though exposure to moisture has left some internal components on the rusty side. This doesn't seem to affect the function of the machine however, as it types in typical Olympia fashion.

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.
