I work in IT and enjoy slamming the keys that go clickity-clack from time to time.
I enjoy repairing, maintaining, and cleaning typewriters.


RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Custom III on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Custom III By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
