Description:
One of the gazillion models built by Royal in Holland using the Halberg design.
I like this one: its Jetsonian styling, its sky-blue paint, and its keyset tabulator. A fine little typewriter, when properly adjusted. (If the tabulator on yours isn't working right, try adjusting the position of the tab stop rack.)
Date of manufacture is probably around 1967.
