Stunning Optima Super with Rockabilly design and US keyboard in a wonderful baby blue. After a little repair she types again but she still needs some attention, e.g. the tabulator does not work yet, Fortunately I already found repair instructions in the bay ...

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 Optima Super on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Optima Serial Number page and the Optima Super By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
