1939 Remington KMC Serial # J1407277 1939 Remington KMC typewriter, Serial # J1407277 Jim Glinski's 1939 Remington KMC typewriter. 2023-03-14 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Jim Glinski: 1939 Remington KMC Serial # J1407277 This typewriter was originally quite dirty, but I was able to remove the core from the shell and get it satisfactorily cleaned up. One foot was missing, and I replaced it with a piece of cork. The shift did not work well, and I washed it clean with acetone and re-oiled on the pivot points, and after some good exercise it works quite well.
