1958 Royal RE Serial # REP-13-6402660 1958 Royal RE typewriter, Serial # REP-13-6402660 James Grooms's 1958 Royal RE typewriter. 2024-12-06 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of James Grooms: 1958 Royal RE Serial # REP-13-6402660 A TWDB repeat performer, now repaired, serviced and detailed. Other than the typical crumbling to dust poor choice for insulation, it was super clean. The line lock and the vertical spacer needed attention to get her working, but now she types great again. These electrics are a challenge, but a whole lot of fun when you can figure them out.

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to anyone area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
