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 any one area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal Cole Vanguard on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal Cole Vanguard By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
