Scientist turned safety manager, turned typewriter hunter. I love the ability to see my words on the page go directly onto paper without distraction. I also love how a machine that was constructed 40, 50, 60, 70 years ago still functions with a little cleaning and patience.
Now, to be honest, I've gotten to be a little bit obsessed with different typewriter makes and models. I'll never have 50 machines but my hope is to have the major brands represented in my collection.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia SG1 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SG1 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
