Small time collector, big time spotter. Best machines in small collection are the ones that come with back story in the form of receipts, retailer badges / stickers, owner names scratched onto the case, etc. What stories are you collecting?


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