Olympia SF Refurbished CURSIVE typeface MINT- condition with case + new platen

Description: I am a factory-trained technician with more than five decades of experience. All my machines include the tear down and reassembly of each machine which is meticulously cleaned, with full lubrication and reassembled to manufacturer specifications. Superb 1961 OLYMPIA SF, rare SCRIPT typeface, factory fresh condition. Full refurbishment, NEW PLATEN ($150 at my cost), NEW silk black & red ribbon ($14.95 value), + original zipper case in excellent condition and a copy of operators manual. This is probably the best small portable typewriter ever made, in my opinion, even better mechanically than the popular Hermes Rocket. The Olympia SF was a favorite of famous writers on the go like Ian Fleming & Hunter S. Thompson.You can expect prices to continue to rise for the foreseeable future on professionally refurbished machines because of the scarcity of local, factory-trained typewriter repairmen and the machines themselves. Logically, professionally refurbished typewriters will be the better investment long term, and they just work better.Olympia are called the Mercedes Benz of typewriters by those that work on them and I heartily agree. In my opinion, the best made typewriters in the world are Olympia surpassing even the ultra-popular (and much more expensive) Swiss-made Hermes machines because I work on them both. Check out the representative photos of what is 6+ hour process mechanical refurbishment process including the near total tear down and reassembly of each machine, including full cleaning and lubrication, then reassembled to manufacturer specs. FLAT RATE SHIPPING via FedEx ground (continental USA only) EXPERTLY PACKED in a sturdy shipping container that protects both the carrying case but also the precision machine inside.
