A wonderful Olympia SM 7 De Luxe typewriter in a rare pink and grey colour with off white keys, space bar 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 1961. It has the Olympia logo on the front and the manufacturers details on the back and the keyset tabulator at the front and has the very nice and more unusual Congress typeface in an "elite" size giving you 11 letters to the inch.
It types very nicely and has been professionally cleaned, serviced, adjusted and tested. It is in full working order and is fitted with a new top quality American made ribbon so its all ready for you to start typing on.
We can supply Universal typewriter ribbons from $13.90 each including postage. Available in plain black, red/black and a range of 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. It does have a few very minor marks to the casing, but it is generally 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.
It comes with a standard Olympia two tone creme and grey carry case which is also in a very good condition with just some small marks and signs of wear. The handle and latch to close work well.
We include a copy of an instruction manual. This is a good working Olympia SM7 in a lovely condition, a very collectable and rarer colour and Congress typeface.
