Help with Olympus Trip

Hi!! I would like to buy a good Olympus analog camera to my mum. She loved the Olympus Trip AF30 (that I broke) and she doesn't like the Olympus III U-120, which she bought a lot of years ago after the Trip one. 

Now, I would like to find a compact camera (even used) similar to the first one but much better than it. 

Can you help me, please? Because I do not know anything about analog cameras.

Thank you

Olympus OM40 Repair

I have a Olympus OM40-Program 35 mm camera and the film advance lever is stuck on it -- it won't budge for me to reload film and/or advance.  Does anybody know why this is or how to fix it?  If so would it be an expensive fix?  And would it be a simple DIY fix if I opened the camera up or should it be best left to the repair-technician?  Any knowledge or advice on the subject is much appreciated. Thank you!

Falz & Werner, Leipzig

I am writing this article because we cannot find any information on the world wide web regarding this old tool.

My girlfriend´s parents bought this camera from the housekeeper that sold furniture from a German or Austrian photographer. This photographer passed away in 1970 or 1971, hence why the housekeeper was selling all the furniture. Supposedly he left all his belongings to this housekeeper. Unfortunately, we cannot remember the name of either of the two persons.

Apparently it was a quite famous photographer in Madrid, Spain. He made photo´s of the Royal Family in this country, amongst them Alphonso XIII (He was King until 1941).

Two years after her parents bought the camera, in 1973, there was a story about this photographer in the ABC (…
