1966 Olympia SF Travel / Ultraportable

Slim design and stable performance. An excellent choice for writing sessions at a favorite bistro or for small spaces. The SF is gaining popularity for its lightweight structure and steady performance. They are increasingly more difficult to acquire.

EXTERIOR & CASE: Original vinyl zipper case is low-profile. Fold down the return handle and easily slip this lightweight machine in for easy transport. The case is in good condition. The external finish of the typewriter is also in good condition, but there is some chipping in a few places (please see images).

PERFORMANCE:  No detectable issues. Rob cleaned this up and put in fresh ribbon, and it's ready to go. The SF model of Olympia typewriters is a good performer, but do not expect the buttery smoothness of the SM models. The SF requires a little more effort to manage the keys, but a good flow is still had! Suitable for active writing projects. 

As always, please watch the demo video I created for this typewriter.

Serviced, cleaned, tested, fresh black-red ribbon installed. Free shipping.

OPTIONAL 6-MO WARRANTY

With the warranty option, we will cover any mechanical issues NOT mentioned in the listing or demo video that result from regular daily use for 6 months, starting from the day our tracking information shows that the typewriter was delivered. We recommend taking out your typewriter immediately and testing it for any issues.

This warranty covers any MECHANICAL/OPERATIONAL issues that occur in the course of normal use. Examples: keys sticking/not operational, carriage no longer working due to a broken drawband or other issue, a space bar stops working, the paper feed rollers no longer pull in the paper, etc. It also covers motor failure on electric typewriters. These are some examples of common issues with typewriters and not an exhaustive list of coverage.

 This warranty does NOT cover damage from misuse, food or drink spills, being dropped, or other accidental damage. Damage such as bent or broken parts is not covered (unless it is as a result of shipping). It also does not cover water damage or any incidents arising from an accident or improper use. Paint or exterior damage is not covered either.

 IMPORTANT! Do NOT attempt to repair the typewriter yourself. Any effort at repair on your part VOIDS THIS WARRANTY! This includes opening the bottom or side panels or accessing the mechanics and making adjustments. Please contact us first, and Rob will guide you as to what to do.

We will always attempt to address issues over the phone or email first. After that, if the problem has not been resolved, we'll give you instructions for returning the typewriter for repair. If there are damages as a direct result of shipping, please notify us immediately.
