Did Royal really give away gold typewriters in essay contests? A question from ATI community member Tammy Smith-McConner brings Greg Fudacz back to the ATI podcast to help David and Everitto find out.
Greg traces gold-plated machines from rare early Blickensderfers to Royal’s dazzling models, including a 24-karat gold Royal KMM covered with the signatures of more than 1,000 sales representatives. Along the way, we talk about clever marketing, the stories collectors can uncover, and why a remarkable typewriter deserves to be used, not just admired.
It all started with one good question. Join us for the conversation, and tell us: If you owned a gold-plated typewriter, would you type on it?
