I have an Olympus Om1n in almost mint condition apart from engraving. A
previous owner has engraved his/her postcode on the camera. Luckily,
however, the postcode - a seven digit/letter combination is engraved neatly
inside the film cassette chamber. As such it causes no problems but as
previously stated it serves no useful purpose.
Regards, John Duggan, Wales, UK.
