With a service sticker from Conejo Business Machines of Thousand Oaks CA - this machine has made it's way back down the West Coast to Los Angeles via Walla Walla WA. I've been told that it previously belonged to a Lutheran Minister... Crisp and snappy typer - sturdy and clean.

First started using a SMC Galaxie Twelve to type out and paste a zine in high school in the late 80's - I've been picking up typewriters as opportunity presents itself ever since. It's more of a casual hobby than a compulsion. Writing on a typewriter seems just the right speed for not getting ahead of what I have to say.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia SM4 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SM4 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
