1956 Optima Elite 3 Serial # 957860 1956 Optima Elite 3 typewriter, Serial # 957860 Sergei Viktorovich's 1956 Optima Elite 3 typewriter. 2023-02-07 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Sergei Viktorovich: 1956 Optima Elite 3 Serial # 957860 This is one of the best typewriters, I have seen.
It's fun and pleasant to use.
Keyboard is tough but with enjoyable rebound.
Carriage moving is very light - it's a case, when the carriage can be returned with a shove.
It's an early modofication of "Elite-3" with a paperstand made as a separate detail.
