Remington Portable #2 (Green and Seafoam), Made in USA, 1928
Here is a stunning antique Remington Portable #2 portable manual typewriter in an eye catching green and seafoam two-tone coloring, a color scheme described in the Remington catalogue of the day as Nyanza and Cellini Green. It was manufactured in the United States of America in 1928. This typewriter types beautifully and smoothly and includes a brand new black and red ink ribbon already installed. Please note that this particular model features a raising panel that lifts the typebars into place that must be activated before typing can begin. This was done to give the typewriter its slim, nearly flat profile. To raise this panel, simply move the knurled switch on the right side of the machine (see photographs). Once raised, this typewriter performs wonderfully and is ready to write your story!

All typewriters sold by Memory Hole Vintage are fully functional and are sold with a brand new ink ribbon previously installed, unless otherwise noted. This means that all major functions work as expected and all keys type normally. As with most vintage typewriters, a key may stick or mistype occasionally, but that is to be expected of older machines. These typewriters have been cosmetically cleaned, but will include varying degrees of internal dust, scuffing, and other cosmetic imperfections. Please examine the photographs for a clear understanding of the machine you are buying. Happy typing!
