Description:
Canadian made Royal Keystone.
Nothing of any note on the internet about this model. The manual for the "Royal portable" refers
To both the Quiet de Luxe & Keystone. It's basically the former model without some
featuresof the QD such as the adjustable carriage speed. I am assuming these are rare since nobody on the whole WWW mentions them about from a few pics.
Stunning to type on. Lovely to look at.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Keystone on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Keystone By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
