The only difference wich I find is that instead of being a Olympia mine is a Optima. I have tried searching for it in the internet but there is absolutely no information about it. May be you could help me around. Hopefully you can write me back. yeicko@gmail.com I bought it in a antique store in Berlin and, to my eyes, is in a great shape. Happy new year.

Yes, Ken, I agree, looks almost brand new.<br />Scott, the ribbon cover sits up a tiny bit on the left, dangerously close to the carriage lever, so I need to be very, very careful not to scratch that beautiful shiny surface. It does need to be fixed.
