A lovely 1951 West German green coloured Olympia SM 1 typewriter with round black keys, space bar and carriage knobs and dark green shift, back space and margin release keys. Olympia was a German brand of typewriter that was known for their great quality and ease of use. This one types in the slightly larger Olympia "pica" size of type giving you 10 letters to the inch and has some accented keys. The SM1's were the start of Olympia's very successful SM range and are relatively rare these days due to the SM1's shorter production.
The typewriter has been professionally cleaned, serviced, adjusted and tested. It is in full working order and fitted with a new top quality American made ribbon so its all ready for you to start typing on.
The SM 1 's are all metal and beautifully engineered machines giving you a great typing performance. This one is in a nice condition with just a few very minor marks and some wear to some of the keys, mainly the accented ones or fractions. It has the Olympia logo in silver on the right side of the carriage.
It comes with a copy of the SM2 manual.
