Burnaby Village Museum has been offered an Oliver No. 7, produced from 1914-15 and only 57,000 were made
The Olivers are the green machines with the carrying handles sticking out the side like a set of bike handle bars. The type faces are designed to strike from the top of the roller. There are letters only, there is no number row at the top of the keyboard. This is a rare model but has no BC history.
There are images available is you would like a look.
