This Offering is for One (1) Antique Royal “Arrow” Manual Portable Typewriter.
From the 1940s I believe.
Great Grey / Black finish to it.
Graphics are in great condition, “ROYAL” Appears Fantastic, “ The text “Arrow” a little less than “Fantastic” but still “Very Good”(See Photo #2)
This Typewriter comes with a Case. The case is in Great condition for age. (See Pic’s 11, 12,1,2,3,4,5,6 & 8)
Of Course The Condition of this Typewriter & Case is "PreOwned" & The condition of such is commensurate with its age and the decades that it has been utilized.
The return bar functions as expected…
The typewriter does function, but should undergo a tune-up.
As shown in photo # 8What is typed is today’s date: June 4, 2021…all keys were tested 3X to ascertain functionality. This should be in no way a guarantee that these keys always will work or do work & we do encourage this machine to have a tuneup &/or cleaning Arranged by the New Owner…Although our typing skills are lacking… this typewriter functioned for us on June 4, 2021 - if you see it on the paper it did work that day…
We do want to reiterate it most likely needs a tuneup.
A NEW Black/Red Ribbon was Installed on June 4th 2021.
So this Typewriter could use a Minor cleaning & a Tune-Up: tasks we are unknowing of how to accomplish…
I will leave that for the next owner.

Note:Upon testing this the margin release button functioned, but please note there is a separate Lever called magic margin in the upper left-hand corner of the typewriter. Not being typewriter aficionados it took us a while to realize that this lever seems to override the margin release button on the main keyboard. It Took us 1-2 oh ours to figure out this margin scenario…just wanted to FYI this to a prospective buyer.
