1938 Royal Speed King Serial # B-779449 1938 Royal Speed King typewriter, Serial # B-779449 Scott Riether's 1938 Royal Speed King typewriter. 2024-12-05 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Scott Riether: 1938 Royal Speed King Serial # B-779449 Thought this was an O when I bought it- the photos online weren't very helpful. Happily surprised it was a B/Speed King! Still in the midst of cleaning and fixing this up. Platen must have been replaced since it's pretty spongy.
