1945 Remington 17 Serial # J725755 1945 Remington 17 typewriter, Serial # J725755 David Vandergucht's 1945 Remington 17 typewriter. 2023-06-25 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of David Vandergucht: 1945 Remington 17 Serial # J725755 Found this one at a garage sale. The owner said her dad bought it for her mom to use for a business they had. It was super dirty, but the main functions all worked. I've cleaned it up and made adjustments, and now it works reasonably well. The only thing that lingers is that the line lock occasionally engages when the bell strikes.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington 17 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington 17 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
