Both the Model B and the later Model D were down-strike-from-front class of typewriters. The “Universal” typewriter keyboard had 96 possible characters by double shift and 32 keys.
The Imperial Model D Standard typewriter was first introduced in 1919 and continued to be produced in the 1920s and beyond.
