Here's a beautiful Royal Quiet Deluxe in a pink crinkle paint finish. This typewriter is in wonderful shape, but it's missing the small white paper release piece on the right hand side of the carriage. (See picture 9. Picture 10 shows the left hand piece for the carriage release that is not missing) The carriage release is still 100% functional, and unless you truly knew what you were looking for, you would never notice that the piece on the right hand side is missing. Other than that tiny little flaw, this machine is perfect mechanically and would be great for heavy typing. If you like the looks of this typewriter, then I'd highly recommend it either way.
