Description:
Found this machine on Craigslist and bought it from a 20-something woman in Chicago. She bought it from an antique mall and had planned to use it for writing, but had never gotten around to it. If she had, she would have discovered that the machine skips pretty fiercely. On this same trip I procured a 1909 Royal Standard.
It came with the fingering chart, the Royal mark of quality, a touch typewriting coursebook, and an original brush.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Quiet on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Quiet By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
