Description:
With its original strong pink color, this "Remington 53" was made by Remington Rand Argentina in the fifties.
It is a sturdy, reliable and a little bit rough war horse.
Was very popular with lawyers and accountants when I was a young man, usualy in dark grey. This is the first one I've seen in this uncommon color (and it is not repainted at all, it leaves the Remington Rand premises in Argentina dressed in this particular shade of pink).
The keytops are grey, keeping the obligatory color of a fifties Remington made in Argentina.
