Description:
I got this 1964 Olympia SM-9 in Doylestown, PA in September of 2022. To my delight, I found it was originally sold by Bob DeBarth, who only recently passed away last year, after being in the typewriter business in Lansdale for 76(!) years after returning from World War II. Beyond the tag, it is a great machine, as is to be expected with SM-9s.
