Description:
Goodwill find. Sought one out after seeing JVC review on YT. I agree with his comments in the review. Had to fix the tabulator and line stop. Escapement timing is the next issue as there is some pile-on of letters. I haven't tracked that one down yet but the trip doesn't happen until the slug is hammering on the anvil. Some letters are worse than others. Came without a case. (Did figure out how to set the timing and now types great.)

Typewriter passion has become nearly an obsession. Keep a spreadsheet of my collection and rotate daily typer occasionally to exercise the herd. All my machines are cleaned, lubed, adjusted and in working order.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Monarch on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Monarch By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
