Description:
A neat little design, but hopelessly outdated by the time it reached the market.
This one needs a thorough cleaning, but otherwise works decently with only a few hiccups while typing. In contrast to the others so far shown on this site, this one also has a unique key to the right of "M"; what's usually a comma-only key instead features an "e" with accents.
There are no other photos of this machine at this time.

I inherited two Royal KMMs as a kid. Over a decade later I started actively collecting and repairing in 2015 shortly after discovering the existence of "weird" typewriters like the Blickensderfer and Hammond, and finding a destroyed Super Sterling to experiment on.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Molle 3 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Molle Serial Number page and the Molle 3 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
