Description:
odd ribbon spool, small diameter fitting large diameter spindle. The C slug has been loosely resoldered and is way out of alignment. Thats an incentive for me to learn that skill, with nothing to lose. The keys have cleaned up nicely but the paint is still chipped and the decals are worn off so I can't be sure of the model. I think it's the Deluxe Model 5 because of theTouch Control.

While I find all of mankind's inventions interesting, I am most enchanted by the human-scale arts and devices, the ones that can be created (and repaired) in a home workshop or studio; the ones that can be understood by looking at them; the ones that do something useful or stir admiration. Typewriters work for me.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Deluxe Model 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Deluxe Model 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
