But this "typewriter poison" does get into your machine and spoil its action unless you have a ROYAL". Because things, that create unnatural wear can not get into it is one of the many reasons why the "ROYAL" doesn't begin to cut capers a few months after you get it Take good look at a "ROYAL" Typewriter. See those dust shields at the top of the machine. Note the heavy glass side plates. They are not on the "ROYAL" for looks although they do add to the appearance. The definite purpose of the dust shields and glass sides is to keep foreign matter out of the working parts of the typewriter and prolong its life. Particles from the eraser are killing to a typewriter for typewriter erasers are from 60 to 80 powdered emery. The dust shield positively prevents eraser particles from falling into the "ROYAL'. There are other and more important reasons why you should use a "ROYAL" too many, by far, to be told in a space ten times this size. But it will take only a few min utes of your time to learn all about the "ROYAL". Phone, write or call for a demonstration. ROYAL TYPEWRITER COMPANY, INC.
