Antique Royal Typewriter RARE, Beleived To Be Model 10

Description: Antique 1921 Royal Typewriter believed to be a Model 10 RARE This is a Royal Model Desktop Typewriter. Made in the early 1900s with serial number shown in photo. The Royal is probably the classic historic American typewriter. The Model 10 began in late 1913. The Model 10 took off in the competitive typewriter market of the day and continued to be popular all the way through 1934 (with nearly 1.5 million Model 10s produced during that timeframe). Royal marketed their Model 10 as being the sturdiest and strongest typewriters ever made. To demonstrate this, the Royal Typewriter Company purchased a small airplane in 1927, loaded it up with nearly 11,000 Model 10 typewriters, and dropped them from the air! Only 10 of them were damaged, a fact about which they thoroughly bragged. The executives at Royal during the roaring 1920s were thinking out of the box with their outlandish stunts to demonstrate just how great their typewriters really were, and still are to this very day! This particular Model 10 has double cut-glass window panes on both sides and represents the second variation of the Model 10. Appears to be all original and Model 10s that are of this early variation and are in good condition are incredibly difficult to find. This antique Royal typewriter from the 1920s is a must-have for collectors of vintage writing instruments. The sleek and portable design of this manual typewriter makes it a unique addition to any collection, perfect for display or actual use. With a black exterior and the iconic Royal brand, this typewriter is a true treasure for those who appreciate the nostalgia of early 20th-century writing technology. Its features include a classic typeface and a sturdy build, all in good working condition. Add this vintage collectible to your collection today. Everything works as should. All keys work but there are a handful that don't go all the way back down. (SELLING AS IS!
