HH review and a makeover

What do you think of this look?

Royal HH typecast

St Vincent was holding out on me

My friend at the radio club told me there was a typewriter at SVdP.  I couldn’t find it the first time but he said it was still there so I looked again.  It turned out to be a Royal HH.
From a quick googling, it seems this kind of neglect and abuse is peculiar to the HH.  This one still needs more work but I think it will turn out well.  I may have to paint it.
