Description:
Arrived in pieces. Reconstructed using the repaired carcass with parts from several other machines.
-Broken frame, line lock, tabulator mechanism, smashed carriage, ribbon advance pawl retaining spring missing... It was a mess,. Pretty good typer now, though.
- The ribbon advance was a problem as the spring was missing, and even if i had a spare, id have to disassemble it to add the spring. Instead I manufactured a rubber plug that goes through the hole in the advance mechanism behind the pawl which accomplishes what the retaining spring would do.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal 10 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal 10 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
