1946 Royal KMM Serial # KMM 3186816 1946 Royal KMM typewriter, Serial # KMM 3186816 Ted Munk's 1946 Royal KMM typewriter. 2018-12-24 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Ted Munk: 1946 Royal KMM Serial # KMM 3186816 Temporarily in my possession for repairs, belongs to a local clothing shop. Some parts missing, but in great typing shape and soft platen.

Dealer sticker for a Prescott, AZ NOMDA dealer who most likely replaced the platen and serviced the machine in 1963 (dymo sticker on back of paper table notes date of platen replacement- just a month after the Kennedy assasination). Phone number on sticker is just "41", as Prescott was a very tiny town in '63.

Update: All fixed up and ready to go back to Green Gurl!

I am a scoundrel without a cause, and my swank outshines the sun.

I am a casual Typewriter Hunter residing in the sweltering deserts of Arizona with a wife, three cats and about 50 typewriters. My main hunting ground is thrift stores, and I rarely pay more than $10 for a machine. My collection consists mainly of portables with cases, and they stay in the cases unless I am actively using it (usually more than one at a time). I do, however keep a handful of interesting Selectrics, including a Composer and a couple of large Nakajima Electronics to use as daisywheel printers for my vintage laptop collection.
