1936 Remington Junior Serial # S202985 1936 Remington Junior typewriter, Serial # S202985 Jonathan Sprung's 1936 Remington Junior typewriter. 2023-04-02 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Jonathan Sprung: 1936 Remington Junior Serial # S202985 This Canadian built Remington Junior was so grungy that I thought many parts had been painted black. (see 'before' photos). I still have a lot of cleaning to do, and there's probably a full tear-down in its future for all those places I can't reach. It needs a new platen and rollers, and the keys are all worn down, and need replacement. That said, it's actually a good machine. It seems more solid than some other ultra portables. I'll revisit this one someday.

I have been collecting typewriters all my life, starting with a 1980's Brother Charger 11 (which I no longer have, but have replaced with an identical machine). I have well over 60 typewriters now, with a few rare portables. Some are interesting or odd, but most of mine are common machines.

My wife and I have made a deal, that I can keep buying typewriters if she can keep buying shoes. Fair enough! *shrugs*


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