1929 Remington Portable Model 3

per item

Up for sale is a classy Remington Portable Model 3 which was manufactured in America in 1929. This typewriter is in amazing shape overall, and is fully functional right down to the bell. Most of the rubber on this machine has been replaced, including the platen, meaning this typewriter should last a very long time before needing any major servicing again. Cosmetically. the paint is in amazing condition, with just a few dings near the spacebar from the carrying case. Otherwise, the paint is completely in tact and shines like a mirror as it did the day it left the factory. The chrome is also in great shape, with no pitting or rust anywhere on this machine.

Despite this machine's old age, this typewriter can still be used pretty heavily and reliably. It types in a standard pica typeface, which is very crisp and clear to this day. This would not be my first choice to write a novel on, but it could be done if you're committed to this machine for whatever reason it be.

The carrying case is in decent shape as well, but is missing the leather handle. A new one could be easily crafted if you're the DIY type!

Overall, this is a beautiful classic machine in near mint shape that's ready to be used heavily and reliably.
