Description:
Purchased at an antique mall in Fleetwood, PA, 6/18/2025. Needs a new ribbon and some cleaning but it works beautifully. Nice metal body, zip-case is a little beat up, but the keys cradle your fingers and it's an easy typer. #olivetti #teal #Spain

Started collecting in March 2021 when an Olympia SM3 caught my eye at a thrift store. By May 2021, I was up to nine. By September 2021, my husband jumped in to the pool with both feet and our collection grew to 37. Phew. By October 2022 we had 64. In 2023 we began attending and hosting events where we can share our collection with the community and other collectors. We've sold or given away over 40. Good times.
