Let T denote the class of functions

f(z) = z+a2z2+…

that are analytic in U = {|z| <1}, and satisfy the condition

Imf(z). Imz≧ 0 (zεU).

Thus T denotes the class of typically real functions introduced by W. Rogosinski [5].

One of the most striking results in the theory of functions

g(z) = z + b2z2…

that are analytic and univalent in U is the Koebe-Bieberbach covering theorem which states that {|w| <¼} ⊂ g(U). In this note we point out that the same result holds for functions in the class T, a fact which seems to have been overlooked previously. We also determine the largest subdomain of U in which every f(z) in T is univalent, extending previous results in [1] and [2].
