Description:
This gorgeous and very heavy beast came to us via ebay from Wyoming, Michigan. We haven't gotten around to cleaning and restoring it yet, but when we do we'll provide a type sample. From the photos, I can see the typeface is italic, so that should be interesting! Stay tuned.

Started with one typewriter in our small cottage, and ended up with over twenty! Transformed a closet into a gothic "typewriterbrary" and it makes a great centerpiece for the house, and an easy way to access all the typewriters for writing letters, journaling, and whatnot, as well as keeping them dust-free in the betweentimes.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
