Brown Office Royal is what I learned to type on.

Name sounds familiar. Our high school would have had old ones, when I took it in 1969-70, so there's no telling what they were.

These were the big ol' brown typewriters, green key pads with the white lettering worn off most of them. It was touch typing from the get-go. Circa 1964/1965 IRRC. I don't miss the round typewriter erasers with the attached brush and don't miss the carbon paper a-tall.
