Description:
Purchased from an Ebay seller, who did her best to ship it to me in a way that it would not get damaged. Unfortunately, it was damaged in shipping. Hot Rod Typewriter Company repaired this machine to the best of their ability and it types well now, despite the escapement damage. This machine types in Canterbury Elite, which I believe was Royal's standard typeface on the 1957 QDLs. I'll be sure to post a typeface sample at some point.

Iâve been collecting typewriters since 2019. I started with a Remington 5 Streamliner that I found in a local junk shop and from there, my love for these machines grew and grew. I now have far too many typewriters in my collection, assuming that you think there is such a thing.
