Description:
Sniped this baby off eBay on one dark whisky night, incredibly fun! I always wanted script machine as anyone else wants. I was looking for an SM1/2 and realized no one cared to much about this one, wasn't advertised as a script otherwise I would have to remortgage the house I don't even have! This is now, my favourite machine in my humble collection. I have all the same machines anyone are after, Hermes, Olivettis, SMCs and other Olympias, but none of them have the soul of that little SM2.
I can't named the colour, it's not cream, it's not green, it's not gray and it's not beige, it's everything and it's just perfect!
