Description:
"Completely new and separated from the past" the "all new" Remington Standard was "scientifically designed for maximum appeal."
The 19 was the same as the previous standard except for the all-composite body, which, I am sure, caused many to end up in the dumpster.
This one was a smoker, but otherwise led a charmed life. A pretty easy clean up, and I didn't even fold it out. Most of the nicotine cleaned up, but oddly, one key and the tab and space bar wouldn't polish up.

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to any one area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington 19 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington 19 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
