Description:
I'm not sure, but I think the serial numbers of Remingtons made in Zbrojovka Brno, Czechoslovakia started with 10001. I've seen dozens of portable Remingtons from Zbrojovka, but not one with a serial number lower than 10000. If anyone has such a typewriter, please let me know. The first character is identical to the American designation of the individual models, the second character Z may indicate the Zbrojovka Brno manufacturing plant. Or as Richard Polt writes, metric (not American) threads on the screws.

Historical typewriters, cameras, sewing machines, ... - all beautiful things, that work only on the basis of human skill and ability. Therefore, they deserve our attention and respect. I do not want to let those inventions that pushed us forward much faster than we were prepared, them disappear in this way.
Lives in Michalovce, Slovakia. Proud father of two children. Started collecting in March 2020. More a hunter than a collector or restorer. But determined to change it and bring the machines to a new life. Thank you in advance for any of your advice and help. (English is not my strong side, so I use Uncle Google's help. Correct me anytime).
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Zeta Remington Portable 3 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Zeta Serial Number page and the Zeta Remington Portable 3 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
