1949 Royal KMG Serial # KMG11-4211648 1949 Royal KMG typewriter, Serial # KMG11-4211648 Adam Rairdon's 1949 Royal KMG typewriter. 2024-03-11 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Adam Rairdon: 1949 Royal KMG Serial # KMG11-4211648 This unit was still in service into the mid 1990s in the office of a small town hardware store in eastern Ontario, Canada. The granddaughter of the owners kept the typewriter after the business was sold. She kept it as a display piece. I purchased it in February of 2024 and after cleaning and mild servicing, it has become my daily driver when I'm in my office at home. Really nice type-feel.

I enjoy restoring and using a variety of antiques. As of late, typewriters are among them. I have really enjoyed using them to send letters to friends.
