Description:
Found in a thrift shop and refurbished by Robert E De Barth in Lansdale, PA. This was our first manual typewriter. We had no idea what a great machine we stumbled upon. Great feel and just about a perfect Elite-sized typeface.

I spent years recreating the look of old typefaces for various design projects. Who knew I could just use a typewriter instead.
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.
