Description:
Got this project, with original case, for $40. Needed a lot to get her going. Royal only made 3,000 Junior models in this body-style with a crinkle finish (there were 2,000 made in gloss finish) before changing to the sloped-top design in 1935. Update 12/23/2023. Just sold this typewriter to a lady who needed a good working machine for her daughter as a Christmas present!

After finding a Smith-Corona Coronet 12 at a curb-side (in Winter while walking the dog) I carried it home; after it thawed out and started coming back to life I was hooked. My interest in this hobby lead to taking two parts typewriters to create one good unit. This typewriter aliment is (pretty much) in-curable!
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Junior on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Junior By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
