1967 Remington Travel-Riter DeLuxe Serial # HY657935 1967 Remington Travel-Riter DeLuxe typewriter, Serial # HY657935 Tas Kyprianou's 1967 Remington Travel-Riter DeLuxe typewriter. 2022-12-19 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Tas Kyprianou: 1967 Remington Travel-Riter DeLuxe Serial # HY657935 Something utterly beautiful about the lines on this machine. I just wished its action were as beautiful. Somehow the typing experience on my example though doesn't compare to my Non-Tab Portable or the Torpedo / Blue Bird this is supposedly based upon. I found this rather clanky. It has a charm about it though, almost French if that makes any sense. I had to think long and hard about letting this one go.

If anyone knows what the typeface is, please let me know. I've been unable to find out anything from the slug's markings. Thank you.

Cutting off a spool like this enabled me to fit the top on the missing original

UK member with Greek Cypriot heritage, living in London.
Relatively new to the hobby - My first machine was an Everest Mod 90 that I bought after watching a Violet Evergarden anime in December 2021.
My collection now consists of 41 machines.

My absolute favourite remains (just) my 1939 Royal KMM. For me, it's both the prettiest and the "warmest" to type on. It has "Majik" (with a nod to Sandy1)
I count my blessings that I am lucky enough to have amassed such a beautiful bunch.
