Although the Studio 44 is unmistakeable and the SM-something cases are pretty distinctive too...<br /><br />Sadly, I fall far short of the expertise demonstrated above - I have no idea what is in the sewing machine case! I would wager some sort of Singer, but that is just because I know how common they are in the States...Adwoahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00457285629002149759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881842661768630727.post-11948491392201029512013-09-21T12:37:58.235-07:002013-09-21T12:37:58.235-07:00Thanks.

I'm trying to figure out if the bid amount is one money for all or per item before I actually plunge.

These typewriters are very common in tweed cases like this one. The handle is too narrow and somehow "clunky" to be that of a Royal Quiet Deluxe. Also, notice the height of the bottom part of the carrying case.
