1939 Royal KMM Serial # KMM14-238915 1939 Royal KMM typewriter, Serial # KMM14-238915 Andrew White's 1939 Royal KMM typewriter. 2025-07-11 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Andrew White: 1939 Royal KMM Serial # KMM14-238915 "Built in the British Empire" badge on front.
Acquired in surprisingly good condition. Only had to clean, do a shift alignment, replace ribbon and increase tension on the shift springs. Only other issue I'm having, as you can see in the type sample, is that a handful of characters are not printing at the top.

I'm a graphic designer and printer by trade, living just outside of Newcastle, Australia but I grew up on a sheep farm in central New South Wales. Just down here tinkering with typewriters, drawing pictures, growing veggies in the back garden and hanging out with my fiance and our three cats.
