Description:
Originally bought this as the other twin (535070) sold before I could get it, and wasn't originally expecting to later buy the twin from a friend, or for the serial numbers to only be 4 apart and for them to have been twins as well. Both yellow, and Everest 7 Elite typeface.
This one lived a rougher life than the older twin, but originally it typed better. Serviced both and now they type identical as well. Wish the paint wasn't as bad on this one, and that it still had the badge, but you can't have it all.
Love the easy remove carriage and body, was a genius idea that others should have done. And the margin release typebar dejammer that I absolutely wish everyone did, looking at you Olympia for not doing it.
Typeface: Everest 7 Elite
Layout: US QWERTY (with the Jolson addition of the frowny face accent key)

Started collecting in March 2025. Have had quite a few machines so far, but trying to keep limit to specific machines so I don't have too many. Currently have ~20-30
My current collection goal is to own all cubic typefaces, with the limitation that each must be on a different model. Just to keep things interesting so everything has its' own place in the collection. I also have a few others that I just wanted to own, so not everything is cubic. Edit: Well not all cubics, over time I have learned that even with all of the ones I own, there are at least another 8 minimum and I don't have the space for more sadly. So cutting it off early sadly.

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