Description:
I found this 1948 Royal Quiet DeLuxe listed online for $100. I was able to negotiate the price down to $50 and I wound up buying it for that price. It had a lot of dust, but other than that, it was in like new condition. I used compressed air to get all of the dust out, and it now works perfectly! I absolutely adore the glass "tombstone" keys and the feel they have to them. The typing action is very light, but still extremely snappy and responsive
