Description:
Olympia SF in a very nice color. Unfortunately, I could not identify the character font, it is apparently based on a German one, but the "ß" is missing, instead there are the characters $, ₤, ¼, ½ and ¾.

Actually working with computers in my professional life I take the old mechanics as a compensation. I prefer machines manufactured before WWII, but I don't despise beautiful and good working typewriters from the fifties and sixties like e.g. the Olympia Splendid.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia SF on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SF By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
