Description:
This is Typewriter #2 in my collection. This is the only typewriter in my collection (as of Jan. 2024), that I use on a regular basis (usually daily). Excellent condition; never had any issues with it since I acquired it in July 2021 in Asheboro, NC.

Hello! I am a college student majoring in History and English, with minors in GWST, Classical Studies, Leadership & Service, and Public History. I work as the Student Assistant of the Department of Museums, Archives, and Rare Books at my university. I intend to pursue a career in rare book curation and education reform. My big, unrealistic dream is to own and curate a museum... galleries would include typewriters, rare books, book art, etc. It would also include a private research library (open to the public). Unrealistic, of course... and very, very, very expensive... but still the dream.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Futura 800 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Futura 800 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
