Description:
I broke my 2024 typewriter fast with this 1930 Remington Noiseless 6, which appears to have been factory reconditioned with grey crinkle-paint sometime in the 1940s or '50s. I purchased it from a seller in a rough part of West Philadelphia, near the Old Cathedral Cemetery, in February of 2024. It needs a thorough cleaning, a new drawband and ribbon, but the bones are pretty good on it.
