Description:
Purchased from a gentleman selling his grandfather's typewriter. Took nearly a day to clean up the piece since it was lying dormant for 40 years. The aqua teal colour adds a modern feel like most Remingtons from the later half of the 20th century. Couldn't get the body open for a more thorough cleaning, but it's in good working condition now and I'm able to type smoothly, albeit loudly :)
Note: Serial number can be found under the right ribbon spool.

I'm a young(er) typewriter nut who doggedly pursued and waited for the day I'd buy a Smith-Corona to write with. The hobby is gradually becoming an obsession with newer members coming in :)
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Streamliner on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Streamliner By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
