1931 Remington Porto-Rite Serial # SR10055 1931 Remington Porto-Rite typewriter, Serial # SR10055 Kenneth Kruschka's 1931 Remington Porto-Rite typewriter. 2022-03-23 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Kenneth Kruschka: 1931 Remington Porto-Rite Serial # SR10055 Sears Roebuck sold the Remington Porto-Rite. It is really a Remington number two when you get down to it. Update 3/23/22 I sold this typewriter as part of a 2 typewriter deal to a girl named Kay, a street performer of poetry and teacher of a creative writing class to adults as well, who drive up from Chicago to buy it. Very glad to've been able to sell her a reliable machine.

After finding a Smith-Corona Coronet 12 at a curb-side (in Winter while walking the dog) I carried it home; after it thawed out and started coming back to life I was hooked. My interest in this hobby lead to taking two parts typewriters to create one good unit. This typewriter aliment is (pretty much) in-curable!
