Description:
Filty, dusty..but for free.
Needs to be overhauled.
A bit strange Serial number, was januari of 1935 such a productive month..?
Not shure if it was produced at that time.
After having spend the evening fiddeling with this beautiful machine..a bit of cleaning, gently polishing it's looking much better than this afternoon.
I was able to create a typeface, but had to move the carriage myself..the string is broken.
The ribbon also exploded onto the paper..as can be seen..

Hello,
Typerwriterfan from the Netherlands, recently bought a few typewriters again and started cleaning and adjusting them.
I haven't touched a typewriter in a long time, but it's fun working with them again.
This is a great database and I will try to contribute too.
Have a nice day,
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Portable 3 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Portable 3 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
