Are there white SM3s? I've seen some pale SM3s come up online, and I'd always read the color as white with inconsistent color balancing. Now I'm wondering if those were actually this lichen color...
There are some white SM3s on the TDB. I've seen the Monica in white which is in the same family as the SM3 and 4.

Re: In-Coming 1962 (?) Olympia SM-4...
Had my Olympia SM-4 out on the work desk today. It is Pica 10 cpi.
Noticed I will need to clean some type-slugs a bit...i.e. some of the lower-case ones.

I use an X-acto knife to pluck out the stuck bits, followed by solvent and toothbrush.

Mike,
I have a nice set of dental picks made in Germany.
Great for type-slugs and my teeth, too. LOL !!!
