Description:
Purchased in June 2025 at a Quaker school in Princeton, NJ. Hungarian keyboard. This one seems to have been very well-kept, however the platen is badly cracked and crumbles apart if you look at it wrong. Aside from that, it's probably the nicest Remington Portable I've ever typed on, and with a new platen it'll probably see regular use.

I have a modest collection I started as a teenager. I recently started actively collecting machines again and now Iâm back up to about 20 machines.
