Description:
Československá Zbrojovka Brno, a.s. began manufacturing Remington Z typewriters in the early 1930s. Watch the You Tube video from 1935. A beautiful memory that shows the production process of exactly this model. At the end of the video you can see the original name of the manufacturer Československá Zbrojovka, a.s. v Brně. However, this typewriter is marked: Zbrojovka Brno, národní podnik. Therefore, I assume that it was made only after the nationalization of the manufacturer, after World War II.
Only Remington models marked with the letter Z were manufactured in Czechoslovakia.

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).
