Olympia Typewriters

[JohnEZ]

Hi all!

I'm having trouble searching for something (again) I figured I'd see if any one of you knew the answer to my problems.

Somewhere around 40 years ago, my grandfather gave my grandmother an Olympia typewriter. It is a nice typewriter, actually. But anyway, the fact of the matter is that we cannot seem to find a contact for Olympia, and the ribbon is in need of replacing. I know that Olympia still exists, because I have a typewriter from them, and see them for sale at Staples a lot.

I've done a google search and can't find a thing. Does anyone happen to have a phone number for Olympia?

Thanks,
John

There is some evidence to suggest Olympia became Brother Industries Ltd.

Gosh darnit. That would really suck.

Thanks anyway, Josh :)
