Description:
My 1962 Royal got screwed up bad; I used it's pieces to fix-up this 1963--which was a parts machine--Royal Futura 800. On a good note, I come to find out she's an elite font type: Cool! This machine is at the end of the run before they started calling the Futura 800's Safari . . . I'll take the 800. Update 1/8/18, I sold this typewriter in a four typewriter package deal.

I've fixed and sold many typewriters. There are three that I love to use for writing: 1930 Underwood No.5. 195 1 Remington Quiet-Riter, 1971 Hermes 3000.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Futura 800 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Futura 800 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
