I started collecting typewriters in the '90s, lost or gave away many through the years, and am in collecting mode again. I like to learn about cleaning and fixing them, as I am an active user, mostly for Poetry on Demand, where people pay me to write poems for them at art fairs and whatnot. I have mostly portables but have acquired one or two desktop models I couldn't pass up.



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.
