1935 Remington Portable 5 Serial # V706231 1935 Remington Portable 5 typewriter, Serial # V706231 Liam O Sullivan's 1935 Remington Portable 5 typewriter. 2017-04-21 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Liam O Sullivan: 1935 Remington Portable 5 Serial # V706231 This is the crustiest typewriter I own. The ribbon is shredded, the Q-key sticks, the spacebar doesn't work while shift lock is engaged, and it smells like a rusty gym sock. With mold on the side. But I have big dreams for this little guy.

I think he has potential. I plan to restore it à la kg6tgr Youtube style.

Fell in love with a Quiet Deluxe won at auction. Now I am a neophyte typewriter enthusiast.
