Description:
Made in Germany. QWERTY keys with Cursive type. Cream/Taupe/Light Grey-Green crinkle finish. It seems to change color depending on the light. Two-tone hard case. I actually found this on a shelf at Goodwill. Could not believe my eyes - scooped it up and brought it home.

I inherited a 1949 gold plated Royal Quiet Deluxe in wonderful condition and that's how this all started. I'm a watercolorist who paints typewriter portraits on commission and for fun. My avatar picture is one of my paintings, done for a fellow enthusiast.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Olympia SM2 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Olympia Serial Number page and the Olympia SM2 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
