Found at The Predecessors while typewriter hunting in Anacortes, WA. It was paired with another similar green Olympia SM3, but I immediately picked this one up because of its beautiful and uncommon typeface.

It’ll need several new parts including rubber, but this portends to be a fantastic typewriter.
