1949 Royal KMG Serial # KMG12-3949145 1949 Royal KMG typewriter, Serial # KMG12-3949145 Jacob Peacock's 1949 Royal KMG typewriter. 2025-06-13 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Jacob Peacock: 1949 Royal KMG Serial # KMG12-3949145 This machine has the decimal tabulator and the 12in writing line. This machine has a problem with the left magic margin, most likely the spring failed. Other than that and some rust in parts, it is in good condition and seems to work well. It has a weird dual color keyboard with the numbers and special characters being yellow on black and the alphabet keys being black on white. The machine is pretty dirty too. By the looks of it it would seem the white keys were replaced at one point, maybe someone found the other keys hard to read.
