Description:
What great machines. Just about my favorite other than being a carriage shift. It had some carriage grinding but plenty of info out there about the easy fix: replacing the squashed rubber washers above the feet which lifts the body/carriage back up from the chassis.

Get to work!
I am a retired graphic artist and I began collecting typewriters in 2021. I like machines from the 50s and 60s. Other interests include music, film making, fly fishing and tinkering with classic VWs.
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.
