1953 Royal Quiet De Luxe Serial # RA-2752342 1953 Royal Quiet De Luxe typewriter, Serial # RA-2752342 Len B's 1953 Royal Quiet De Luxe typewriter. 2022-08-26 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Len B: 1953 Royal Quiet De Luxe Serial # RA-2752342 My first typewriter, it came with original bill of sale (Sold in Kansas City Missouri for $91.80 in 1953, roughly $1000 in 2022.) manual, and some original paraphernalia. It came to me with some mechanical problems in the tabulator, but I had a local TW mechanic fix it up and it’s working great now. I passed it along to my friend who really enjoyed using it while it was on my desk. I believe it’s in crinkle grey or “dove grey” as I also heard it called.
Made in the United States.
