THE TYPEWRITER
THAT INTERESTED
H. M. THE KING.
WHY?
Because, not only was it British, but it was proved to be better and cheaper than Foreign-made typewriters.
HOW?
Not only the Home, Dominions and Colonial Governments, but also the Swedish Government have decided to replace Foreign-made typewriters by the "Imperial."
BECAUSE
As the result of open competition they were proved better and cheaper. Leading Firms in Britain, Australia, 8. Africa and Canada are doing the same.
The
"IMPERIAL" TYPEWRITER
is a typewriter no Firm that values Efficiency and Economy should fail to inspect, and the stricter the in- vestigation, the more surely will its overwhelming superiority be proved.
