A lovely 1959 olive green coloured Olympia SM 4 De Luxe typewriter with dark green keys, carriage knobs and space bar together with a smart silver chrome trim. This one has the standard Olympia elite sized type face with 11 letters or characters to the inch.
Olympia was a German brand of typewriter that was known for their great quality and ease of use. It is in full working order and we have given it a professional clean, service, adjusted and tested it and fitted a new top quality American made Universal ribbon so its all ready for you to start typing on. The SM 4 's are all metal and beautifully engineered machines giving you a great typing performance. The main difference between the SM3 and SM4 is the tab settings are placed next to the space bar at each end. This one is in a very nice condition with just a few very small marks to the metal body, mainly on the ribbon cover.
Universal typewriter ribbons can be purchased from us we when required and are available in plain black, two tone red/black and a range of other colour options. New ribbons are priced from £9.95 including postage.
It comes with it's original two tone green and creme carry case which is also in a good functional condition with some signs of wear on both the inside and the outside. The closure and handle both work well. There is some wear to the chrome fittings on the handle.
The typewriter measures 30 cm by 30 cm by 13 cm high and although classed as a portable this is quite a heavy machine and if you are after something to carry around this may not be the best option, but if you want something sturdy, robust and a great typer then this is one to consider.
We include a photo copy of an original instruction booklet.
A very collectable Olympia SM4 with a lovely snappy typing touch.
