An extensive comparison showing the many differences between first

Vancouver (part 3, Optima Humber 88)

1961 Optima Humber 88 1958030

Post-war Erikas 1949-1965 (I've added some new photos)

This is the only Optima Humber 88 I have seen. Any search online just brings up this exact typewriter, plus one other listing in Delhi, India although that has been taken down and I can't find a photo it.

Has anyone noticed Blogger over-saturating images uploaded? I've noticed it on my past few posts.

(Tip: if you notice your post doesn't show in the blogroll, just revert it to draft and then republish it.)

Never even existed as an Olivetti.

That poor Studio 45 (which I didn't buy)
