Description:
1934(?) Royal KHM, Regal Remanufactured in 1941, according to new serial number plate (41 designation in middle). Purchased in 1983 at a library sale in Bellingham, WA for $5.00(!)
Photo shows the poor thing after sitting, uncovered in an unheated garage since 1998. Type specimen made with the existing ribbon, no cleaning.
"La Bête" as she is known is currently across the Puget Sound at the Bremerton Typewriter Company being brought back to life by Paul & Co.. She's due to return to me in Seattle sometime in March. Updates to come.

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