Description:
"Monarch by Remington"
Probably a rebranded Torpedo 700 or 900 (these machines were introduced around 1960)
I can't find the serial number.
The interesting thing is the typeface
"Remington 560", 12cpi

My first typewriter had a Script typeface. The second machine was a Graphika with the Cassandre typeface.
I quickly discovered my interest in different typefaces, so I focused my collection on them.
Currently I can choose from 36 different typefaces.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Torpedo 700 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Torpedo Serial Number page and the Torpedo 700 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
