This is my sixth SM9. I like Olympias! Pica font. This one needed a little bit of TLC. Pretty clean, but it had gotten water splashed on the segment which resulted in a bit of surface rust I had to flush out. The plastic margin ruler at the back was cracked at one end, so I glued that back together and bent the metal bits back in to shape as well.

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 SM9 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SM9 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
