Description:
A wonderfully snappy machine, with full keyset tabs. Unfortunately this example is showing corrosion of the cast aluminium alloy keyboard bezel, in the form of a white powder. It's also missing one of the green trim pieces for the paper release. Very clean machine, no cleaning required apart from a good dusting and segment flush. Otherwise it's a joy to type on!

Software engineer by day, and typewriter newbie by night.
I got my first typewriter when I was a child, one of the kid's plastic ones, but was not satisfied.
I moved on the first real one, a portable Silver-Reed Silverette S, which I still own today, and use once in a while.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Quiet-Riter on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Quiet-Riter By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
