Description:
This one was a proper mechanical disaster when it landed on my workstation. Had to hammer some stuff back into place and the tabulator is still completely broken.. It is a model produced in Canada, with a French keyboard, and a frankly ridiculous carriage. Its slow, but I presume that is because each keystroke has to pull the 20 pound carriage along. It also skips spaces sometimes, but I have written a few of my essays for school on it, so it works well enough

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Royal KMG on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Royal Serial Number page and the Royal KMG By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
