1947 Royal Quiet De Luxe Serial # A-1408714 1947 Royal Quiet De Luxe typewriter, Serial # A-1408714 Mark Schrad's 1947 Royal Quiet De Luxe typewriter. 2023-06-09 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Mark Schrad: 1947 Royal Quiet De Luxe Serial # A-1408714 I got this 1948 QDL from a fellow collector in Ontario, NY in May of 2023. It has some persistent backspacing issues that I'm still working on. So, when the sky was on fire and the smoke plumes from Canadian wildfires made the air unbreathable and the daytime sky turn orange, I did what any typewriter collector would do... go outside and do a photoshoot in the weird light! And so that's what this is.
