Typewriter enthusiast. Started using a typewriter during university after realising I'm easily distracted by anything on the Internet. I had Hermes Baby, an Olivetti Lettera 22 and an Adler Gabrielle which I have rehomed during my many moves. I then got an Olympia to get me through my Masters and now I'm in love with an Imperial Good Companion.


RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia Splendid 66 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia Splendid 66 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
