A lovely two tone creme and dark grey coloured Olympia SM 9 typewriter with off white keys, space bar and mint green shift keys and carriage knobs. Olympia was a German brand of typewriter that was known for their great quality and ease of use and this one was made in West Germany in 1966. It has the Olympia logo on the front and the manufacturers details on the back and the keyset tabulator which is the main difference between the SM9 and the SM8. It types very well and has been professionally cleaned, serviced, adjusted and tested and a new top quality American made ribbon fitted. It is in full working order and this one has the standard Olympia elite sized type face giving you 11 letters to the inch.
We can supply Universal typewriter ribbons from £7.95 each including postage. Available in plain black, red/black and a range of Universal ribbons in other colour options.
This model has a metal casing and the whole front section lifts up to access the ribbon. The SM portables have a reputation as being "the writers " typewriter and this one certainly types very nicely. The casing has at some point been re spray painted.There are a few very minor marks and some minor marks to the silver chrome work, but generally it's in a very good condition. It measures 30 cm by 32 cm by 14 cm high and although classed as a portable is quite heavy. If you are wanting something to carry around a fair bit this may not be the best option, but if you are after a good solid and well made typer this is certainly one to consider.
There is no carry case with this one.
We include a copy of an instruction manual.
Delivery anywhere within the UK is included in the price.
