I grew up with a Selectric next to the computer. Sometimes I would just turn it on to hear the motor hum. Fast forward a few decades and I rediscovered my love of typewriters. My brother-in-law heard me talk about all the typewriters I saw but couldn’t afford and found a free electronic Brother in a family member’s attic. Didn’t have the heart to tell him how ugly it was, and I did love it just the same. Then I figured out eBay and online auctions and it was all down hill from there. I’ve even bought machines while on vacation and had them shipped home! All the kids are grown up except the youngest so soon we will be downsizing the house and I figured it was time to start taking inventory and selling machines that are collecting dust.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Automatic 612 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Automatic 612 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
