Description:
A very nice condition Quiet De Luxe. Purchased from FB Marketplace for $50 from a seller who had purchased it to have next to her daughter's wedding guest book. Guests were encouraged to type good wishes to the happy couple.
The typeface is pica, and the imprints seem to be solid, with a bit of cleaning needed.
This is my first manual tab set machine, and they're fine.
I look forward to using this quite a bit.

I very much enjoy end of line hyphens.
My collection is used. Rotate through the whole stable on a regular basis.
Letter writing is the new blogging.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Quiet De Luxe on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Quiet De Luxe By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
