Scan the QR Code for Gunier’s Christmas Carol. There’s some synchronicity here as Girl 1 and I were discussing Alvin & The Chipmunks this morning. Here is Gunier’s own cover of “Christmas, Don’t Be Late”.

You have no idea how much I’ve missed you over these past 8 months man; It’s terrific to have you back!
About the Carol~Gram, I tried to produce it as accurately to the original. What that entails, is bouncing every snippet of audio between my cassette recorder & my computer at least a dozen times to give it that signature tape degradation sound! (My pops hates The Chipmunks, but thankfully he doesn’t seem to mind my rendition of it!)
Can’t wait for your reply, I’ve missed reading yours!
Looks like at least the mail bag is getting back to normal.
Hope you enjoy your first Christmas in wonderful New England
Wanted to get in touch with you but couldnt find your email address, so i guess i’ll try here. I have a curiosity regarding Royal Ensign serial numbers mentioned in the description here: https://typewriterdatabase.com/1964-royal-ensign.27165.typewriter
saw that. It’s not the first time that the Royal factory parts manuals were incorrect on model start serials, especially those models originating in non-US factories. Interesting anomaly, but doesn’t abrogate the point of reporting what the factory documents say. (:
Generally, I make it hard to contact me because I do these sorts of conversations in the comments of typewriter galleries, where all of the Typewriter Hunters can learn from and participate in the conversation and it stays there forever (well, as forever as interwebs get) as part of the gallery itself. I am averse to throwing information into a black hole, and that’s ultimately what email is.
Ah, just thought I’d bring it into attention. Good to know its not a totally abnormal occurrence.
And in the spirit of making knowledge easier to access, i’ll probably appropriate your reply into the Ensign description (if that’s fine by you) or you can comment on the page.
Sure. It’s an interesting question why the factory parts manuals would be wrong (especially using such exact serials, usually a sign of validity). It would be worth pulling the anomalies (machines like yours in the galleries – there are at least a couple, but I don’t recall which) and maybe checking when the ads for this model appear in newspapers. That might illuminate a date mismatch or something. However, I’ve always assumed that these serial cutoffs for models might indicate that the model went some design change and that the note means something like “serials after this for this model have *these* parts” as opposed to earlier parts lists. Could just be a matter of interpreting what a one-line note in a parts manual actually means. (:
