Description:
Scored for $50 through an antiques salesman. Works fine, types well.
UPDATE: (9/3/14) I got this machine on October 25th 2013, a week to the day after I got the parts Royal HH. That makes this machine my first functional desktop typewriter.
Typeface Specimen:
Photos:
Visible in this picture and the others around it, there is a little chip out of the paint in one of the ribbon caps. That particular cap doesn't click down without a little help, and the previous owner chipped it with the carriage return lever.
Water has gotten underneath the right shift and margin release keys, making them virtually unreadable.
Accurate Office Equipment is still around in the town that this machine came from!
The chip in the paint on the left ribbon cap was done long before I got this machine.
