After the Brother 1350 which of course started the collection, this is my favourite typewriter in the collection. We are now into the 1980s and plastic is used more and more in typewriter construction. This is certainly the case with the Olympiette with it's beige moulded cover and dark grey keys.
So why do i love this typewriter so much, apart from the fact it types pretty well i love the fact it has London map stickers on it. It seems to me this was a typewriter that worked hard throughout it's life probably in some dingy office deep in London.
