Description:
Local sale in original case.
Just needed cleaning.
Standard carriage. Pica 10 with 61 cast into slugs
One key was missing a link so not working. No trace of the link was found. The link could be restored if a suitable piece of heavy wire that could be bent into shape.
After some time, the key is now working as well as the others. It was the key most far right on the top row, next to the Tab. How often do you need a 3/4 symbol, but it is nice to have an exclamation mark available.

Retired to the quiet of rural Nebraska to contemplate nature.
Typing down thoughts, prefer that to handwriting.
Not really a collector, just like to tinker on mechanical things.
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.
