Purchased 8/11/2018
Possibly my dirtiest SM8/9 thus far. Also the most I've paid for an Olympia portable yet (excepting my two wide carriage models). In my defense - it's script! Now I just have to flush it out so it can type again and I can get a sample.

I've been collecting typewriters since 2010. I currently have 100+ machines in my possession. A little over half of them reside in my "personal" collection, while the rest are machines I intend to clean up for sale, or are long-term restoration projects (I'm looking at you, Olivers and Foxes!).
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia SM8 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SM8 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
