Description:
Another Cutlass. Really a Royal Custom. Replaced the SCM 6 Series Cutlass. Interesting no? Sears probably made a deal with Royal to acquire their inventory as the were closing out US production 68-70? Not sure. 1970 is best guess based in Royal serials. Sears model 704.5111. Elite Typeface.

A lover of the written word, I was bitten by the typewriter bug at the beginning of 2019 when I embarked on a Joyful Odyssey to track down a vintage Olympia SM 7/8/9, (I didn't know the model number at the time) that my mother had owned and which I had used to type my college applications in the late 1980's. I have acquired quite a number since, and have enjoyed learning about the history, mechanics, and true variety of these machines.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Sears Cutlass on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Sears Serial Number page and the Sears Cutlass By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
