Description:
Black crinkle finish, with case. Found at an Estate Sale in West Seattle, WA in 2019. The missing backplate was generously replaced by another collector. Needs a mainspring repair, once I pick up some spring steel. The black and chrome is really lovely.

I inherited a 1949 gold plated Royal Quiet Deluxe in wonderful condition and that's how this all started. I'm a watercolorist who paints typewriter portraits on commission and for fun. My avatar picture is one of my paintings, done for a fellow enthusiast.
