Description:
neat little portable manual; could be mistaken for a Futura 800 if the two are not side-by-side (and you’re not very familiar with them)--see the last pic. The case looks strangely old-fashioned for this style, doesn’t it? All-metal body; seems like cast aluminum.

While I find all of mankind's inventions interesting, I am most enchanted by the human-scale arts and devices, the ones that can be created (and repaired) in a home workshop or studio; the ones that can be understood by looking at them; the ones that do something useful or stir admiration. Typewriters work for me.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Parade on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Parade By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
