Description:
Wood finish - Greek Letters and French AZERTY keyboard layout - P195580
Came with a functioning lock mechanism on the case, a Corbin key, and a cleaning brush issued by Royal; however, the case is missing a handle due to the leather wearing away.
Interestingly enough, the indexes for the Shift, Shift Lock, Margin Release, and Backspace on this Royal P are also in Greek, and there are 6 dead keys for accent marks used in the Greek language.

Currently, after some of the more rare typewriters with typefaces, ESPECIALLY FRAKTUR!
My typewriting collection began when I inherited an old Monarch No. 3 from an old family member, and that kickstarted everything for me.
Gladly willing to trade typewriters as well. Currently trying to learn how to properly restore and repair typewriters at the moment, but I have done some small-scale things here and there. I am ESPECIALLY after Greek typewriters as well as international keyboard machines (Greek, Cyrillic, Hungarian, Hebrew, and Arabic are my most sought after at the moment) However, I would die to have a Fraktur machine!
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal P on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal P By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
