The Royal Epoch is featured in the Vermont Country Store catalogue in the States.

The catalogue has been in business for many years. It seems to draw response from retirees of both sexes for clothing and underwear, cosmetics and masculine requisites, medical remedies and appliances, candy and baked goods, and analog household appliances. If you were a propmeister setting up a 1950s production ... this is the place.

I buy soap-on-a-rope there. At 83, , I need a soap in the shower that will stay put!
 

As usual, my comments are based on design. I have the Skywriter and the Corsair for comparison of US brands with the shift in time and competition in the 60s from Europe and Japan. Both models are interesting examples: the Skywriter, made in the US and in metal, and the more competitive and later model the Corsair. This design for lower factory cost was a co-op US/UK under SCM and made from plastic in the UK.

I think you might find both models interesting if you are into the aesthetics of mid-century design.

 

Regardless of color, model, horsepower, ethnicity, or shoe size, congratulations on the fantastic job of restoration!

NB   a couple of these are here for other reasons as I written vefore, The Olympia MS9' because of the book and the Valentine because of Ettore Sossasse.

The rest stand on their own.

Hi, Uwa,

No need to mention brain farts and etcetera ... the detritus of living into olde age. I am farting along at 83.

I collect/accumulate quickly because how much time do I have. 

Best,

Dick
