Description:
A nice, all metal Safari bought at the town flea market for $18. Printing is a little faint. I can't figure out why since it is embossing the paper with most letters when I view the back side and it has a new ribbon. Still, it is a nice 10-pitch Roman font. The color is boring taupe, or putty or something like that. Nice solid sounding, and the keyboard feel is usable but not light.

The pounding typebar, having writ, moves on... unless there's a ding.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Safari on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Safari By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
