Having jumped back on the "analog" bandwagon with vinyl records and film cameras, I suppose typewriters was a natural next step. :-)
I bought a 1949 Smith Corona Sterling in great shape, thinking it would be my only typewriter. Next thing I know, I'm in "hunter" mode and I have several more machines that I have cleaned up. I'm in the Phoenix, AZ metro area.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal O on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal O By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
