The year of its manufacture is the first critical connection. In 1935, Ian Fleming was 27 years old. It is not famous because of who owned it. There is no claim that Ian Fleming ever touched its keys.

The Vintage Royal Quiet Deluxe portable typewriter from the mid-century modern era is a collectible item that is perfect for typing enthusiasts or vintage collectors. This typewriter, made by the renowned brand Royal, is portable, making it convenient to take on the go or move around in a small space. It would benefit from a thorough cleaning and oiling to bring it back to its original condition and ensure smooth operation. Most keys stick and individual key arms don’t return to position. Proper care would fix that I assume. Types and has ribbon. Return and roller work perfect. As I’m not astute enough to fix selling as PARTS or visual display. Ideal for display or practical use, this typewriter combines retro charm with functional capabilities.

Awesome vintage electric typewriter. It powers on and keys strike and return properly. The auto return works good. The letters do not show because the ribbon is completely dry. See the pics selling it as-is.

Keys are a little "sluggish" from sitting unused for so long. As noted, it is missing the "touch" key cap in the upper left had of the keyboard. I believe this is used for carbon paper.
