1968 Remington Monarch Serial # TRM 146438 1968 Remington Monarch typewriter, Serial # TRM 146438 Martin Brown's 1968 Remington Monarch typewriter. 2024-10-16 From the Virtual Typewriter Collection of Martin Brown: 1968 Remington Monarch Serial # TRM 146438 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.

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. My mentors are local shop owners in PDX.
