1931 Royal P Serial # P88-284852 1931 Royal P typewriter, Serial # P88-284852 Marty Morren's 1931 Royal P typewriter. 2026-11-11 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Marty Morren: 1931 Royal P Serial # P88-284852 Found this beautiful machine on the Dutch marketplace 'Marktplaats' for a great price. I noticed in the ad that the typeface was not regular pica, but the photos were too blurry to make out what it actually was. I had a suspicion that it was Italic, so I asked for better photos. Once I got those, I could not accept the asking price quickly enough...

I got it today (11-11-2026), and immediately cleaned the machine up and put a new platen in. I definitely plan on using this lovely machine!
