1938 Rooy Intermédiaire 28 Serial # 303895 1938 Rooy Intermédiaire 28 typewriter, Serial # 303895 Lupo Cuore's 1938 Rooy Intermédiaire 28 typewriter. 2022-08-07 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Lupo Cuore: 1938 Rooy Intermédiaire 28 Serial # 303895 Picked this one up off an Etsy seller in NH. I suspect given the location that it came into the USA with a French Canadian family since many came to Manchester area that came to work in the Amoskeag Mills (and the local phonebook is still chock full of Gagnons, Pinards, LeBlancs, etc). How it got into Quebec? Possibly a soldier home from the war? Who knows. Interesting to speculate. Had problems with the carriage and general grime but it cleaned up okay (it came with the paint scratches).

New collector with a penchant for offbeat models/brands and, conversely, the mundane models many overlook, if I have a personal connection or just find them interesting. Finding that collecting typewriters is like eating potato chips, you can't have just one! Also restorer of mechanical calcs, Vintage audio, and vintage computers.
