A thrift-store find in good shape, but with a hard platen and a wobbly return lever. Writes well with a new ribbon.

I’m a writer who often writes with a typewriter to get away from the computer for a while. I think I became a typewriter collector when I bought my typewriters some industrial-grade wheeled steel shelving from a restaurant supply house. Before that I was just an accumulator, but now I’ve spent more on shelves than on all the typewriters put together. (They were all cheap.)
I have steel pens, too, which I also write with regularly. Both collections started at the same moment in 1990, at the liquidation of the head offices of the old G. C. Murphy five-and-dime chain, where I bought a Woodstock typewriter, two gross of Esterbrook Jackson Stub pens, and three bottles of Carter’s green ink.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Heritage on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Heritage By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
