1955 Olympia SM3 Serial # 705421 1955 Olympia SM3 typewriter, Serial # 705421 Reinier Verkleij's 1955 Olympia SM3 typewriter. 2023-10-25 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Reinier Verkleij: 1955 Olympia SM3 Serial # 705421 The Olympia SM3 in white. Sadly, external condition is not great on the machine nor the case. The machine itself works like a tank, after replacing the rubber feet, and emptying the segment. The dust bunnies lodged in the segment were huge. I don't think it has ever been serviced. I tried my best. Just some paint thinner in the segments and it should be perfect.

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.
