Description:
This machine is currently not working. It came with the carriage not moving, the spring on the bell destroyed, the spring on the backspacer gone (which jams the carriage), the right shift key broken off, and all the feed rollers seem to be flat. The machine is a Pica typeface based on the "P" on the slugs. I seem to have gotten into a Royal liking as of recently.

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.
