This Royal Custom II was manufactured in 1968. It is identical to the Royal Sabre, but has the added feature of a paper bail. Below is a 1968 Seattle Times advertisement for the Royal Lark and Royal Custom II and Custom Ultronic. The Lark was a step above a Royalite, but was still a low-priced machine. The top of the 1968 Royal typewriter line was the Custom Ultronic. The Custom Ultronic was Royal's first electric portable typewriter.
