Description:
This is a Remington 7 with the Gorin tabulator attachment. These attachments were introduced in 1896.
This machine features an interesting hack: the ribbon guide was updated, with parts soldered, to handle and guide standard width ribbons.
Pictures are before any (light) restoration, which the machine clearly needs.

I started collecting my first pre-WW2 standard typewriters in 2017. Since then I have added a few machines to my collection, which now ranges from the 1880s to the 1980s. As of 2024, I have more big standard (desktop) typewriters than portables, a few standard electrics, and some unusual machines like Varitypers, uncommon IBM machines, and more. I am not a pro restorer, but I have restored a few of my machines beyond simple cleaning.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington 7 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington 7 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
