Description:
Was thrilled to discover this giant on the shelf while checking out a GW thrift store.
The paper feed lever/injector is quite fun (I am easy to amuse) and the letter spacing feature is pretty neat too.
I use this one to type recipes because I like being able to type the little "degree" symbol.

Typewriter user since childhood--"Endofthehall Press" (produced a magazine for my big sister, I did) and avid hunter for many years. Partial to portables/ultraportables, but do love my standard models too. I use my typewriters for letters, recipes, lists, stories, pondering, and in art/fabric creations.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia SG3 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SG3 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
