I just had to share this gorgeous Royal poster (circa 1930?) I spotted on eBay.

  1. Behold, the typewriter!

    That *would* make a pretty awesome t-shirt. Or a framed print for an office wall. Or living room or kitchen wall, for those of us who can get away with such things. ;)

  3. It may be old enough that the copyright has expired. But the Royal brand name is now owned by Olivetti, so you could try getting Olivetti's permission ... good luck!

  8. Is anyone else feeling a Cecil B. DeMille vibe here? Should there be a Charlton Heston voice-over?
