u/L5CES

How common is Elite No. 8 (11 characters per inch) on Olympia SM3 and SM9?

I’m realising both my 1956 SM3 and 1968 SM9 have this same type face.

Seller listed for $300. Bought for $100AUD.

Current collection:
1968 Olympia SM9
1956 Olympia SM3
196? Olympia SF
196? Olympia SF Cursive
1968 Olivetti Lettera 32
1962 Olivetti Lettera 22 Salmon Pink
1960 Remington Travel-Riter Deluxe

Would still like to check out:
Smith Corona Silent Super
Smith Corona Skywriter
Olympia Splendid
Hermes 3000
Torpedo 18 (Had a Blue Bird but foolishly sold it)
Olivetti Studio 44
Royal Quiet Deluxe

But that would make 14 typewriters, and that would be silly.
