Recently rediscovered the joy of writing on a manual typewriter. My Royal KMG is my favorite, followed closely by the Royal Safari portable.



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.
