Description:
The second exception I've made to the portables-only rule, this great example was a gift a friend found locally. Serial number on the body frame and carriage rail is 7-787170. On the carriage underside is 8-811424. The right platen knob was missing--but it was under the ribbon cover! A fantastic typer with Olympia Elite 87 typeface (12 pitch).

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.
