The Herald of Better Service IN the arena of "Big Business" has appeared a new steel-brained champion, the Master- Model of the Royal--the machine with the rapid- fire.action; the typewriter that fires letters as an automatic gun spits bullets!
"
Unless you are "Royalized," you are paying the price of the Royal without knowing it-besides that of your old. style machine-in the higher cost of your business letters.
Built for "Big Business" and its Great Army of Expert Operators
This master-machine does the work of several type- writers in one-it writes, types cards and bills! The one machine does it all-without any "special" attachments.
