Description:
No. 14 in my collection is a 2nd Remington Deluxe Model 5 (or De Luxe Model 5?). This one is in a bit rougher shape than my other one, and is about a year older. There's something wrong with the left shift, the left shift lock is busted, and some of the keys rest higher than others. The 8 also sticks in an odd way. However, this one has the carriage lock intact, where it's broken on my other, better one.
Otherwise, there seems to be no difference between the two, other than being built 1 year apart. The case also seems to be the same.
Another Goodwill Auction acquisition, sent from central Iowa.

Relatively new to collecting. Would like to document my collection.
Planning on sticking to full-sized American machines so I don't spend too much on fancy European portables.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Remington Deluxe Model 5 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Remington Serial Number page and the Remington Deluxe Model 5 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
