Description:
Acquired from a moving sale. Stored in a basement, moderate mildew. Missing right-hand ribbon spool. Heavily indented platen. Otherwise is in working condition with no other obvious missing parts. Case has some wear and tear but has generally held up well. No provenance. So far, light cleaning has been the only rejuvenation. Awaiting aftermarket ribbon spools to check typeface.

I have recently (late 2023) become infected by the typewriter bug. My herd includes 2 Underwood Standards, a Royal QDL, a Royal Safari, 3 Oliver No. 9's, a very crusty Woodstock, an unknown relic, and most recently, a Remington Remette. A friend heard about my condition and she will be gifting me a Hermes 3000 the next time we get together.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Remette on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Remette By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
