The best manual typewriter to buy depends on whether you value precision for long-form writing, portability for travel, or ease of maintenance for a first-time purchase. Experts and long-term users generally recommend from the 1940s to the 1970s , as modern "new" manual typewriters (like the current Royal Classic) are often criticized for poor build quality and plastic components.
