Description

Nice  Early Chrome Shutter Button Edition – 1974

Please Note: Like many well-loved classics, this Olympus Trip 35 carries a tiny piece of its history. It has a minute cosmetic dint on the top cover near the 1 on the serial number (please see photo), which we only noticed whilst completing its refurbishment. As our full-priced cameras are reserved for Mint or Excellent cosmetic examples, we’ve reduced the price of this one accordingly. The mark is purely cosmetic, is barely noticeable, and has absolutely no impact on the camera’s performance. It has been fully serviced, thoroughly tested, and is working beautifully, meeting the same high mechanical and optical standards as every Olympus Trip 35 we sell… just at a lower price.

Camera Serial Number: 1698882
