No.51: Typewriter of the Day - 1958 Olympia SM3 Deluxe

No.51: TOTD - 1958 Olympia SM3 Deluxe

The two tone machines are beautiful, this particular model from 1958 is in marvelous condition.  Looking at it you can see very little wear. The original owner typed with it in the case, removing the top.  I can see marks where the owners wrists rested on the case bottom.  I am moving this to my permanent collection.  Here is a picture:


Looking at who used an Olympia SM3 for their work I found Woody Allen on Richard Polt's site.
He may no longer be politically correct but he is a great writer and filmmaker.  I understand he still uses this typewriter.  One interesting connection I have with Woody Allen is that I saw him walking by the Forum on Rome in 2011.
