1923 Remington 12 Serial # LE37069 1923 Remington 12 typewriter, Serial # LE37069 Kristian Tuerke's 1923 Remington 12 typewriter. 2023-07-28 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Kristian Tuerke: 1923 Remington 12 Serial # LE37069 A 1923 Remington Standard Quiet 12. This machine was made at Toronto, Canada. Restored by myself using original parts from a 1919 Remington Standard 10. It works wonderfully for a century-old workhorse! I purchased this machine from a young picker named Brennan in Toronto on the 17th of April, 2021. He had found it in a garage at an estate sale. The parts machine was purchased from a Mrs. Haskell of Welland, Ontario. The Remington 10 was subsequently sold off as a parts machine as it was not a candidate for restoration.

I am a history and special-education teacher from Toronto and a lover of typewriters from the teens through to the fifties! I am a firm believer that the typewriter still has a place in our modern world.

I enjoy hunting around local antique markets and buying from private sellers. If I can find an original owner machine, I tend to pick it up! My goal here is to document the machines I have in my private collection. Any supplementary information on the machines are also included, such as original owners, places, dates, and any history the seller willingly provided.

In the context of my life, they provide a hobby for me to work on, a tool to write with, and a passion to share with others. In my professional capacity, typewriters offer students of history a tangible glimpse into the past and a great way to foster curiosity-based learning and education! For my special education students, typewriters offer a sensory tool that modern electronic tools cannot match. Thank you for sparing a moment to get to know me and I hope you enjoy my gallery!
