January's safari and guessing game

There wasn't much new in the antique mall since last month's safari, but I did see the following typewriters. Can you guess which one(s), if any, I bought? The first person to guess correctly will receive a genuine typewriter-themed postcard.

Brother Charger Correction, $25 (on sale for 20% off). You can't make it out in this photo, but where the red ribbon color selection mark usually is, on this typewriter it's white; the stencil mark is not white but silver. So this typewriter was intended to be used with a ribbon that includes a correction strip.


L.C. Smith no. 8, $99:


Remington Portable no. 1:


Price tag on the Remington. The staff at the antique mall said, "People come in and buy them for the keys, to make jewelry ..." I replied, "Isn't that a shame?!"


Royal P, $45:


Underwood Universal, $75:


By the way, these are among the first photos I've taken with my new iPhone. Yes, I have joined the hordes. It was time for a change after I dropped my old dumbphone, didn't notice that the SIM card popped out, and (as best I can reconstruct the events) vacuumed it up while cleaning house. 

I need all the help with smarts that I can get!
