Description:
I am a Remington girl, but this baby spoke to me. I wanted a machine that I could take to the park if I want. (I just cannot risk dropping my older guys.) Aside from being filthy inside, this types like a dream! I cannot find anything wrong with it. It even has a case with a key to lock it! The Bomb Shelter of Akron scores another direct hit!

I lucked into a 1938 Remington Rand 5 at a thrift store a while back and the rest is history! Typewriter fever has led me to the Typosphere, where I am working to further my knowledge of these fabulous machines. (My husband calls it "Typewriter Porn".) Remingtons are still my brand of choice!
