Recently found the fun of fixing typewriters, and now I have a small fleet of them. Mostly manual typewriters, but now I do have a few electric and electronic as well.


RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Portable on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Portable By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
