Description:
A professional's choice, this well-used Remington came from the estate of a career journalist. Even though it needs a few intensive hours in a decontamination chamber, it types exceptionally well and feels every part the workhorse that it is.
Its family ties to the Remington portables of the era are immediately obvious (see last photo in gallery), and given its eye-pleasing design and capable performance it's a little surprising that more of these machine weren't produced.
